Ottawa – Waste Reduction Week is the perfect opportunity for residents to challenge themselves to divert waste from entering the landfill.
On Tuesday, October 18, Councillor David Chernushenko, Chair of the Environment Committee, will read a proclamation on behalf of Mayor Jim Watson at the beginning of the Committee meeting declaring the week of October 17 to 23 as Waste Reduction Week in the City of Ottawa.
Residents can look forward to the following activities during the week:
Fall Give Away Weekend
Citywide
October 22 and 23
One person’s trash is another’s treasure! Set your gently used items out at the curb for Fall Give Away Weekend. Tour your neighbourhood and city to find hidden treasures.
Rules for setting out items:
Final Household Hazardous Waste Depot for 2016
Date: Sunday, October 23
Time: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Location: OC Transpo Park & Ride, 3355 Fallowfield Road
Residents can properly dispose of items such as paints, stains, pool chemicals, fluorescent tubes, computers, TVs and cameras for free during the depot. No commercial waste will be accepted. For a complete listing of acceptable household hazardous waste, visit ottawa.ca.
Residents can also safely dispose of electronic waste and many kinds of household hazardous waste by returning them to participating local retailers during their regular business hours. For a list of participating retailers, visit ottawa.ca/wasteexplorer.
Waste Reduction Week is an annual event that challenges Ottawa residents to think about what they throw away and to learn about the many services the City offers to protect our environment by increasing waste diversion.
