Sept-Îles junk disposal and bulky items
Official local guidance for furniture, mattresses, appliances and household waste in Sept-Îles — with pickup and disposal rules separated.
Bounded local rules were checked against official municipal/regional sources. Confirm your item and address with the operator.
Quick answer for Sept-Îles
Sept-Îles lists bulky household items, including furniture and mattresses, as accepted at the residential écocentre and Clarke/Moisie reception areas. Use the correct location for your neighbourhood; residential sites are not for commercial disposal.
1. What ordinary curbside collection covers
The City runs separate collection programs for regular garbage and large rejects. Verify your street schedule instead of assuming every bulky item can be put out with regular bins.
2. Regional landfill or transfer-station route
The Sept-Îles écocentre is at 701 boulevard Daniel-Vachon. The City also operates reception areas at 625 rue de l’Église (Clarke) and 1300 route Jacques-Cartier (Moisie), which list furniture and mattresses as accepted.
3. Appliances, chemicals and special waste
The City’s accepted-material lists differ by site; hazardous waste, batteries, propane cylinders, building waste, metal and electronics have site-specific directions. Observe the separate site exclusions.
4. Charges, schedules and booking
The City describes its residential écocentre as a free service; business, institutional and commercial material must use a different receiving route. Check current hours and limits before travel.

Waste and recycling rules can vary by building type, address, operator and material. Large items should not be left at the curb unless your applicable collection program explicitly authorizes them. Facility acceptance is different from curbside acceptance.
Before you load a truck or place an item outside
- Check whether municipal or regional service applies to your property.
- Identify the item’s exact stream: mattress, furniture, major appliance, metal, hazardous waste, construction material or ordinary household refuse.
- Check the official fee, facility hours and any required booking or advance approval.
- Secure your load and follow facility instructions for separation or special handling.
