Many of the depots are currently closed, but if you can find a space to store, they will be grateful for drop offs when they re open.

Books

Pack up your old books and head out to the book fairs.  Look for listings in your local paper.  Or consider one of donating your books to the Ottawa Public Library, Goodwill or Value Village .  Here is a list of places that accept used books in Ottawa. 

Toys & Games

I can’t think of anything more recyclable than toys.  Gently used toys have the opportunity to bring joy to some of others.  I love to bring my toys to the children’s schools, shelters and Donation Depots in your neighbourhood.

Ensure that you compost, recycle and dispose of waste properly

However you spend it, treat every day like Earth Day!
