How to dispose of common items in Trois-Rivières
Mattress and box-spring disposal
Furniture and mattresses that are too large for a normal vehicle can qualify for the booked bulky-item service when listed as accepted.
Appliances and special items
Large household appliances can be included when accepted, but regulated electronics and hazardous products have dedicated ecocentre/recycling routes.
Drywall and renovation debris
Construction and demolition material should be sorted and taken to the ecocentre instead of counted as one of the three household bulky items.
Before you set out or haul a large item
In Trois-Rivières, classify the item before choosing the disposal route. Furniture, mattresses, refrigerant appliances, electronics, household hazardous waste and construction debris can be governed by different collection or facility rules even when they come from the same home.
Use Ville de Trois-Rivières — Encombrants to re-check the current collection date or booking requirement, item dimensions or weight limits, facility hours, fees and preparation instructions. If the guide uses a regional authority, that is intentional: the regional waste operator may control disposal even when curbside service is associated with the municipality.
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.
