Do you have unwanted items that can be recycled? We've compiled a list of organizations across Canada that accept recyclable goods. Although we have tried our best to include accurate information, recycling of certain items may or may not be available in your area. We encourage you to contact the organizations directly to confirm if goods are accepted in your neighbourhood.

If you know of an organization that accepts items for recycling, please let us know by sending an email to marina@charityvillage.com
