RECOVERABLE BULKY WASTE
Collections on request only

Recoverable bulky items consist of bulky items that are not accepted in sectoral household collections and can only be disposed of on request.


These are essentially two specific types of bulky items:

1)   Household appliances of all sizes:

  • Air conditioners
  • Freezers
  • Stoves
  • Dehumidifiers                  
  • Dishwashers
  • Washing machines
  • Dryers
  • Refrigerators
  • Water coolers   

2)   Large format televisions

  • Televisions with 55-inch screens or larger
  • Built-in televisions

Did you know?

Household refrigerating appliances contain halocarbons that deplete the ozone layer and have a significant impact on climate changes when released into the atmosphere.

That is why appliances collected as recoverable bulky items are sent to a specialized recycler who ensures that the halocarbons are disposed of in accordance with provincial regulations.

What’s more, nearly 95% of the remaining components are recycled!

Rules to follow

Refrigerating appliances must be placed at the curb, on your property (not in the street), on the scheduled pick-up day.  Doors and other closing devices must be removed in order to prevent a child from becoming trapped inside.

Other options

Many retail stores now offer to take back old appliances when you buy new ones. Some will even pick up old refrigerators from your home.

Check with your retailer!
