Tax Receipts
If your registration is eligible for a tax receipt, it will be sent to your email. Tax receipts are issued for $10 less than the full amount paid due to the CRA's guidelines regarding the "advantage" or "benefit" associated. In the case of our tree pickup service, the CRA considers the tree collection as an advantage folks receive in relation to their donation. (Example: A $30 payment will receive a $20 donation tax receipt.) This advantage is valued at $10, which aligns with the fee charged by the City of Guelph for residents dropping off their trees at the city waste facility.
