What goes where?

Use this tool to determine how to sort waste into the recycling, green or garbage bins.
 
Before an item is tossed away for good, see if it can be recycled for a new purpose. Donate gently used items at a local shelter or participate in the City’s Curbside Giveaway.
 
For more information, visit the set out and large items section. Visit the York Region Waste Depots page to find out how to dispose items and household hazardous waste that the City does not collect.

Search instructions

Enter the item that is being disposed of in the text box below and select from the list online.
Reminders
 
If the item being searched is not displayed, please contact Environmental Services. A full guide of what goes where (PDF) is also available for download.
