Clean Community Day parking lot

Spring cleaning just got easier with the return of Port Colborne’s Clean Community Day on Saturday, May 24.

The free community initiative offers residents a convenient and responsible way to dispose of bulky and damaged property debris, including broken furniture, mattresses, and even the kitchen sink. The event will take place at the Engineering and Operations Centre parking lot, located at 1 Killaly St. W. Dumpsters will be available to the public beginning at 9 a.m. on a first-come, first-served basis, and collection will continue until dumpsters reach capacity.

Eligible items for disposal include:

  • Broken furniture
  • Mattresses
  • Water-damaged books and magazines
  • Broken toys
  • Broken lawn ornaments
  • Cushions and old lawn chairs
  • And more!

Certain items, such as regular household garbage, yard waste, propane tanks, batteries and electronics, will not be accepted for disposal during the May 24 event.

Clean Community Day is part of the City’s Clean Community Project, which aims to promote responsible property maintenance, encourage proper waste disposal, and foster a cleaner and more welcoming community.
