Declutter & Donate!
Curbside Giveaway Day was a big hit. Next one is happening Saturday, May 24.
Gently-used household items are always needed so, remember to donate any leftover items to local charities instead of going to the landfill. Your donations make a difference in our communities and the environment.
Check out Restore GTA and Furniture Bank to learn how you can donate.
For more information, visit Curbside Giveaway Day.
Keep It Loose, Do Not Bag!
Do not bag recyclable material— all items must be loose in your Blue Box.
- Bagged material will not be collected as it cannot be opened for recycling.
- Items must be loose to allow proper sorting and processing at the facility.
- Plastic bags are not accepted in the Blue Box.
Learn how to recycle right and recycle more on our Blue Box page.
