Cougar Ridge sits right under Canada Olympic Park, with the Paskapoo Slopes along the north edge and Old Banff Coach Road to the south. Building started in the early 2000s, so most homes are now around 20 years old. That's about when the first big round of replacing things happens.
Junk pickup in Cougar Ridge works the same as anywhere else we go. Book and pay online, set it at the end of the driveway by 8 am on a Tuesday or Friday, and get on with your day. We send a photo when it's gone.
Where to leave it in Cougar Ridge
Nearly every house here has a front-attached garage, so the driveway is the spot. Put items at the end closest to the street, off the sidewalk.
Some streets back onto green space or slope down toward the ravines. If your driveway is short or steep, leave things flat on the pad, not leaning on the garage door or your car. Anything touching something else is harder to load cleanly.
Wait until the morning to bring it out. Coyotes and magpies both like bagged garbage left overnight.
What people get rid of in Cougar Ridge
Two decades in, a lot of houses here are swapping out what came with the first move-in. Common pickups:
- The first sectional, usually from the bonus room
- Builder-grade appliances replaced during a kitchen update
- Kids' beds, desks and play kitchens
- Patio sets that have seen too many hailstorms
Basement developments also leave behind odds and ends: offcut drywall, empty boxes, the old carpet pad. Small amounts are fine.
