How to dispose of common items in Aurora
Appliances and special items
Appliances, electronics and hazardous materials can have separate regional recycling or depot routes; check York Region’s Waste Depot rules before loading the vehicle.
Drywall and renovation debris
Construction debris is not ordinary bulky furniture. Use a York Region depot or private construction-waste service appropriate to the material.
Mattress and box-spring disposal
Mattresses and large furniture should be scheduled as bulky items rather than left beside regular garbage without a request.
