Special Drop-Off Events
Due to the popularity of the hazardous waste events, we may reach capacity before 2p.m. The Ministry of Environment prohibits us from accepting any drop-offs after 2p.m., even if there are still participants waiting in line with their products.
Take the opportunity to get rid of your hazardous waste items at one of our annual drop-off events. Specific dates are listed on our online event calendar or in our printable Waste Collection Calendar.
The drop-off event is hosted at the municipal garage, located at 851 Route 400 in Embrun from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
