What it costs
Loads are charged by weight and material type, with a minimum charge on most loads. Sorting matters: clean, separated loads (e.g. yard waste, metal) are often cheaper than mixed garbage, and if hazardous items are mixed into a general load, the whole load is charged.
Free at the Eco Centres (residents only)
- Paint — including dried-out and empty cans
- Cleaning chemicals and other household hazardous waste, in original sealed containers
- Batteries (tape the terminals) and up to 8 fluorescent tubes per visit
- Electronics and e-waste
Eight fire-station hazardous-waste depots around the city take the same materials — see our depot locations guide.
Before you go
- Tarp and secure your load — unsecured loads can be fined.
- Residential drop-off only for the free programs; commercial loads are charged.
- Check whether you even need the trip: many items go in your curbside carts. Look the item up first.
