Chapleau's warning residents to follow guidelines for bear bins.
A notice on the Township's website reminds the bear proof refuse containers are only for the use of Chapleau taxpayers, with household waste permitted in "normal size refuse bags" - but grass clippings, building products, wood, metal, paint, automotive batteries, tires, fireplace ashes, broken glass, and hazardous material are strictly prohibited, and refuse cannot be left outside the container under any circumstances.
