You can sometimes find a cast-off gem that you can use. I got a toboggan, friends got a garden bench.
There's a charge for household waste - one ticket per bag. All the recycling is free. It is managed by the Rockyview County, but you don't have to be a Rockyview resident to use it.
If you want to talk to the people of Bragg Creek, the dump is the place to go. Politicians, fund raisers and gossip mongers make good use of it.
