To make it easier for residents of Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce to properly dispose of certain waste items, we have a mini sorting centre at each of our locations.
Note
Please note that this service is only for borough residents and in small quantities. Hazardous household waste items not mentioned below (for example: paint, chemical products, car batteries, computers, televisions, etc.) should be brought to an Écocentre (for example, the Côte-des-Neiges Écocentre). Please consult the Montréal website for all of the details.
Accepted items
Sauvons le verre CDN-NDG
Bring us your glass bottles and jars! In order to ensure they’re properly recycled, we accept glass bottles and jars at our offices as part of our Sauvons le verre à CDN-NDG glass collection program. Our partnership with a specialised glass recycling facility allows them to be effectively recycled.
Drop-off conditions: The glass must be intact (not broken), only glass containers are accepted (no light bulbs), preferably without caps and properly cleaned.
Collecting glass separately from other recyclable materials makes the recycling process more efficient by reducing the potential for contamination from broken glass.
- Corks, which are sent to ReCORK to be recycled
- Polystyrene/styrofoam blocks (#6 plastic) used for packaging items such as electronics or furniture. Other containers and packaging marked plastic #6 can now be placed in your blue or green bin with your regular recycling!
- Used batteries, as part of the Call2Recycle program. Please see the Recycle Your Batteries Canada website for more details about safety and which batteries are accepted.
- Empty printer cartridges, as part of Mira’s printer cartridge recycling program. Please note that not all cartridges are accepted, see this PDF for details about which cartridges we can accept
- At our 6767 ch de la Côte-des-Neiges location only: Small electronics in the Electrobac drop-off point on the ground floor of the building. Before throwing them away, think about trying to repair your electronics at one of our Répar’action workshops!
