Textiles curbside collection is happening this week in Barrie.
Your textile collection day is not the same as your regular collection day.
To find your Textiles Collection Day, please click here.
This past spring, City of Barrie residents helped keep over 151,000 lbs. of textiles out of the City’s landfill. This was the total weight of the items collected during the curbside textile collection that took place from May 31 to June 4, 2021.
Residents are invited to continue to help keep reusable items out of the landfill by participating in the fall curbside collection of textiles (clothing, linens and shoes). The collection will take place the week of September 27 to October 1, 2021.
Donating your items is easy:
- Look up your textile collection day (note that textile collection day is the business day AFTER your regular waste curbside collection day).
- Place your items in a waterproof bag. Clear bags are preferred, but you can leave your textiles in any bag. Please label the bag(s) as “textiles”.
- Put your bag(s) out on the curb on your textile collection day by 7 a.m., rain or shine.
