Cardboard recycles when dry. Soft plastics and foam often need depot or garbage paths.

Food residue out

Keep produce and liquids out of junk bins. Organics belong in food programs where enrolled. Refrigerant equipment needs its own handling, so ask us when you book and do not put it in the bin.

After hours pads

Prefer private loading pads. Street placement needs a City check. Store materials indoors or schedule pickup to avoid leaving loads out overnight.

When a bin fits

You handle the loading, and we handle the drop off and the haul away. We usually start people on the 20-yard junk bin. We also have a 15-yard bin, but it is often sold out, so ask when you book.

Your driveway or yard needs no permit for the bin. Some cities require a permit on the street, boulevard or lane, so confirm with your City first. Share your permit dates with us if you need them timed to delivery.

Skip batteries, electronics, propane tanks, paint, solvents, pharmaceuticals and asbestos when you load a junk bin. Search Metro Vancouver Recycles or call 604 732 9253 if you are unsure.

Check our disposal bins and what not to put in a bin pages for standing limits.
