Protect yourself, your property, and our environment
Safe disposal of cooking oil, cleaners, paints, gas, batteries, and light bulbs helps protect you and your property. Bring your household hazardous waste (HHW) to the District's HHW drop-off events of our year-round facility, to be disposed of properly at no charge.
No charge drop off
Muskoka residents can drop off household hazardous waste free of charge at scheduled events or at our year-round facility in Bracebridge, and we will ensure they are recycled or disposed of safely.
Note that as with all of our services at the District, we’re continuing to monitor COVID-19 closely. We urge residents to double-check any scheduled events before they plan their trip.
Updates on program impacts or event cancellations will be posted at MuskokaRecycles.ca and our free Muskoka Recycles mobile app.
