When: Tuesday, from 8 am. to 6 pm, and Wednesday to Saturday, from 8 am. to 4 pm.
Where: Regional WMFs in Oshawa and Port Perry. Donation bins are located after the weigh scales.
Note: Donation bins were removed at WMFs due to Covid-19. As restrictions slowly begin to be lifted, some organizations are reopening donation bins to the public. Only clothing, textiles and small household unbreakable items should be placed in the bins at Regional WMFs.
Due to increased levels of traffic at WMFs, residents are reminded that curbside collection program is available for the disposal of large items, including furniture and other bulky items.
