Many materials are "recyclable" but that doesn’t always mean that they can be recycled in Toronto. Knowing what to put in the Blue Box depends on where you live.  

All low-rise residential buildings in Toronto have waste and recycling collection managed by the City (whether public or private workers do the collection). The City distributes a calendar with information every year, but you can also find out here:

• What to put in the Blue Bin, and other information about recyclables in Toronto
  
• What to put in the Green Bin and other Green Bin information
• You can also use the Waste Wizard to find out what to do with any material 
  

Commercial buildings or high-rise residential buildings may be served by the City collectors, or by a private company - these companies don’t all recycle the same things. 

• If you have City service, visit the City website and the links above.

• If you don’t have City service, contact your landlord or property manager to find out what is recyclable in your building and how to set out materials properly.
