La Semaine québécoise de réduction des déchets

Taking place from October 20 to 29, 2023, this year's event invites us to rethink the way we consume. Key words to remember: share, reuse and repair.

To highlight la Semaine québécoise de réduction des déchets, the City invites you to take part in a workshop to make eco-friendly household products. Come and learn how to integrate quick and easy solutions to create your own household products.

Let's take advantage of this theme week to remind everyone about sorting materials. When you put your residual materials in the right place, you're really doing your part to protect the environment.

In Saint-Lazare, we sort our materials!

Are you sure it goes in the garbage? Test your knowledge by taking the quiz.

• Kitchen waste goes in your brown bin.
• Printed paper, cardboard, glass and aluminum containers go in the blue bin.
• Batteries, light bulbs, small and large appliances, paint and other construction waste go to one of the region's four ecocentres!
  
  

And don't forget! It's good to sort our waste, but it's even better to reduce it at source! Discover the Zastuces de la réduction and a host of information to help you put new consumption habits into practice.
