Many people don’t realize that the city WILL NOT pick up certain items from a curb side on “garbage day”. Televisions, computer monitors, laptops, copiers, fax machines, etc. simply won’t be collected. Every year, about 3000 tonnes of E-Waste end up in landfills – just in Ottawa. That’s 300 garbage trucks full of the stuff. Not cool. Many people don’t realize that almost all consumer electronics can be reconstituted or re-purposed in some way.
Anything with electrical cord on it – we’ll take. Have questions? Contact us or call us at 613-699-6636
