Loyalist Township is pleased to announce the arrival of three new family physicians as part of its ongoing physician recruitment efforts.

People who do not currently have a primary care provider are encouraged to register with Health Care Connect, a program that helps connect patients with family doctors accepting new patients. The new physicians are required to give priority to Loyalist residents.

FAQs

Bag tags

We have a “pay as you throw” system for garbage, meaning that you need to purchase garbage bag tags. Every bag of garbage needs a bag tag when it's put out at the curb. 

Visit our bag tag page to find further details regarding bag tags in Loyalist Township, or to purchase bag tags.

If you live on Amherst Island, please take your garbage and recycling to the Amherst Island landfill. Garbage must be tagged or tipping fees will apply.

Your pickup day may change if a holiday overlaps with a regular collection day. Sometimes your pickup will be earlier than you're used to. We print regular schedules and changes in our calendar, and changes are listed on our website.

Source separated organics survey
