Sherbrooke disposal at a glance
Local drop-off & pickup details
Practical local details to check before you load, set out or book a large item.
- Large-item route
- Sherbrooke uses booked bulky-item collection, but the City has reported the 2026 season at capacity. Although October 23 is the published request cutoff, do not assume a booking remains available; check the City form or use an approved ecocentre or transfer-centre route for eligible materials.
- Facility / address
- Primary 2026 ecocentre option: Écocentre Michel-Ledoux, 1000 rue Léon-Trépanier, Sherbrooke, QC. The City also operates Écocentre Rose-Cohen at 365 rue Pépin, subject to 2026 construction/temporary closure status.
- Phone / contact
- City environment / service information: 819-821-5858
- Hours / timing
- Ecocentre hours are seasonal and the City directs residents to its live ecocentre schedule. Recent listings show Monday–Saturday daytime service; because Rose-Cohen has 2026 construction impacts, confirm the active site and same-day hours at 819-821-5858 before travelling.
- Material routes covered
- Furniture & mattresses; Appliances; Electronics; Renovation debris; Yard waste / wood
How to dispose of common items in Sherbrooke
Mattress and box-spring disposal
Confirm mattresses in the City's encombrants instructions when registering. Wet or contaminated mattresses may be refused and an ecocentre or private route may be required.
Couches and large furniture
Common residential furniture can be an encombrant when it meets the City's accepted list. Large quantities from a move or estate cleanout may exceed the municipal service.
Fridges, freezers and appliances
Appliances, electronics and refrigerant equipment can use separate recovery programs. Check the City's sorting tool rather than assuming they belong with furniture.
Drywall and renovation debris
Wood, drywall, fixtures and other renovation material belong at an ecocentre or approved facility, subject to resident identification, quantity and material rules.
Does your property type change the answer?
The process for multi-unit buildings can be controlled by the owner or manager. Confirm where items may be placed and who submits the request.
Québec source note: Some official municipal or provincial sources may be available only in French. Use the linked authority page as the controlling source and use browser translation if needed.
