Quick facts
Uptown and the adjacent West Side make up Saint John's historic heart — dense pre-1900 brick and wood-frame housing, much of it rebuilt after the 1877 Great Fire, plus heritage commercial blocks. This is where renovation, restoration and gut-reno demand concentrates, so compact 4–20-yard bins are the practical choice on tight lots and narrow streets. Where there's no driveway room, the bin goes on the street under a City permit. New Brunswick adds HST at 15% on top of base and tipping fees.
On Uptown's tight lots the bin often has to sit on the street, which requires a Saint John Street Occupancy Permit through the One Stop Development Shop. Many operators arrange this for you — ask when you book. Construction and demolition debris is tipped at the Crane Mountain Landfill on Crane Mountain Road.
