Other ressources
To dispose of other large items, you can go anytime to one of the ecocentres located in the Longueuil agglomeration, or consult the directory of recyclers.
Moreover, we strongly recommend that when you purchase a new appliance, you include a pick-up for your old appliance in the sales contract or have your contractor remove them.
