Waiting times

Safety

For your own safety, we recommend you wear safety glasses, closed shoes and work gloves when sorting and unloading your materials.

COVID-19: For now, you may not buy items from the repurposing centre. However, you can continue to drop off used items.

Gypsum sorting pilot project at the ecocentre
Gypsum is now being handled separately from other construction debris at the Saint-Laurent ecocentre in order to improve the quality of recycled gypsum and increase its potential for re-use. Gypsum will be processed and used to enrich farmland or as absorbent material for pumping companies and commercial garages.
