For a full list, visit peelregion.ca/waste Residents have the following options to dispose of large metal appliances: • bring the item(s) or other metal fixtures to any of the Region's six Community Recycling Centres free of charge, • book a collection appointment with other local charitable organizations that offer the service (e.g. Habitat for Humanity), • plan to have old appliances removed by retailers when new models are purchased. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2016-06-30 13:14:17 Post date GMT: 2016-06-30 17:14:17 Post modified date: 2016-06-30 13:55:14 Post modified date GMT: 2016-06-30 17:55:14 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
