The popular Terracycle Zero-Waste boxes are available inside the Burlington Centre ( near the Bentley store) for a pilot program, inviting residents to self-deposit select smaller sized items on an ongoing basis (see below). Items collected are not currently accepted in Halton for recycling, so we are thrilled that this opportunity is available so that together, we can take action to reduce the volume of waste headed to the landfill.
Electronics: Click here for Burlington locations that collect electronics during the year such as Staples and Best Buy, and it’s a good idea to call ahead to confirm what they are accepting.
Light Bulbs (CFLs: compact fluorescent, Halogen, Incandescent light bulbs): Click here for Burlington Locations ( Ikea), and it’s a good idea to call ahead to confirm details.
