Recycling, Yard Waste and Garbage Drop Of

When in doubt, check it out!

Some items require special handling and must be dropped off at an appropriate depot to be recycled.  If you are not sure where an item should go, use the What Goes Where recycling directory or download the free Nanaimo Recycles App to find the location nearest you.

Do you have additional recycling, garbage or yard waste?  Look up a drop-off location in the What Goes Where recycling directory.
