Out with the old and in with the new! If you’re getting rid of household items this spring, take advantage of the City of Vaughan’s many waste management and sorting tools to learn what items may be recycled or reused for another purpose.

Here’s an overview of the ‘What Goes Where?’ tool, Recycle Coach app, Curbside Giveaway Days, Waste-less Virtual Visits and more:

What Goes Where?

Have you checked the trees on your property for brown- and orange-coloured egg masses? In May, you may start to see some of these egg masses hatch into caterpillars. These insects are called spongy moths, formerly known as LDD or gypsy moths, an invasive species not native to Ontario. City of Vaughan staff continue working to manage the spongy moth population in the community – and you can help!

With many citizens observing holidays this weekend, the City of Vaughan is reminding residents of facility closures, modified hours and alternate programming from Friday, April 15 to Monday, April 18.
