On Saturday, October 21st, 2023, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.,the Electronic recyclig A BurlingtonGreen is teaming up with the Burlington Centre and the Burlington Repair Cafe (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.), to host this convenient and popular event to help you eliminate clutter from your homes, offices, schools and community centres, so that together we can help the planet locally.
