Community Environment Days are held by City Councillors in every ward of the city from April to September - these are a great one-stop shop to drop off waste, pick up a new green bin, and talk with your Councillor about environmental programs!

Did you know that Scarborough has the highest recycling rate in Toronto?

Every day, hundreds of workers in all parts of Toronto do the hard - and often dangerous - work of picking up our garbage, recycling, organics, yard waste and heavy bulky furniture and appliances. Waste workers are doing an important green job and they’re part of the green circular economy, getting our waste and recyclables to the right place!
