Learn where to dispose of plastic bottles, coffee cups and other single-use to-go items

If you’re grabbing a coffee to go or bringing a plastic water bottle on your neighbourhood walk, remember to think before you toss. Single-use items like those often end up as litter in our parks, trails, ponds and rivers, which is harmful to the environment and wildlife.
