How do we Recycle Your Junk?
Recyclemyjunk.ca chooses to use only responsible recycling disposal facilities. All items picked up by our trucks are recycled or disposed of in the following way:
Wood
Wood including construction debris, green waste and wood furniture is separated then broken down and taken to the wood chipper for recycling.
Metal
Metal is separated and delivered to our metal recycling partners for recycling.
Drywall/Concrete
Both drywall and concrete are recycled at reputable recyclers.
Construction Debris
The material in Construction loads varies at each site or at each stage of construction. We train our team to sort and recycle all wood, metal, drywall, concrete/tile, debris, and separate the remaining small amount of non-recyclable waste.
Electronics
Large and small electronics are taken to a government certified recycler for recycling.
Appliances
Large appliances are taken to a metal recycler for recycling.
Paper/cardboard
Paper, cardboard and books are taken to local paper recyclers.
Mattresses & Box springs

Reusable furniture
Furniture in reusable condition is donated to thrift stores and charities.
Non-Recyclables
Sofas, carpets, food waste, soiled fabrics, and other non-recyclables are taken to government certified transfer stations.
