The household hazardous waste and electronics recycling roundup is a program that was initiated by Council in the summer of 2022. The program encourages residents to keep household hazardous waste and electronics out of their curbside carts and provides a convenient location for drop off within city limits. 

The roundup is for residential household hazardous waste and electronics only. Household hazardous waste and electronics can be dropped off at the Waste and Recycling Centre year-round.
