A New Doorstep Pickup Service Launches in Montreal and Laval

News | By GoRecycle |

You asked, we listened!

Residents of Montréal Island and Laval now have access to a brand-new, free doorstep pickup service for end-of-life cooling appliances. The timing couldn’t be better—just in time for moving season, when many are eager to part ways with their outdated appliances.

This new service is complementary to the already-existing options offered by retailers—who provide pickup with the purchase of a new appliance—and through a network of nearly 400 drop-off locations across the province.

A Simple, Free, and Eco-Friendly Solution

With just a few clicks, we’ll be on our way to pick up your appliance—right from your doorstep!

How to request a pickup:

  • Fill out the form and choose your preferred pickup date  
  • Prepare your appliance following GoRecycle’s instructions
  • Place it outside, on your property — not at the curb.
  • A GoRecycle partner will come by on the scheduled day to pick up your appliance.

That’s all! Quick, easy, and hassle-free.

Why It Matters

Refrigerating appliances contain halocarbons—harmful substances that can seriously damage the environment if not handled properly. With this new service, GoRecycle is making it easier than ever for residents to recycle responsibly.

Every appliance recovered helps prevent the release of, on average, one ton of greenhouse gases (GHGs)—the equivalent of:

13,870 uses of a reusable coffee cup

  • Refrigerators
  • Freezers
  • Wine fridge
