Put Waste in its Place – Sorting Tool

Sort your waste before placing it at the curb!

Use our Waste Sorting Tool to quickly search any item and find out whether it belongs in the Green Cart (organics), Garbage, Blue Box (recycling), or at a drop-off location.

Sorting waste properly helps reduce contamination, protect the natural environment, and supports Halton’s waste diversion efforts.

The information in our sorting tool and other sorting resources follow Ontario’s Blue Box program (external link). It also reflects Halton Region's single-family curbside collection requirements.
