♻️ Did you know that we have expanded the list of items that we collect for recycling? We will be accepting the following new items at the upcoming June 2024 REmarket: ✅Single-use face masks ✅Water filters (all brands) ✅Coffee bags and pods (empty) ✅Black takeout containers (clean, dry) ✅Worn and damaged textiles (clean, dry) These items are then recycled by partners such as TerraCycle Canada, Plastic Flux, and Pact, while Earthub arranges for empty prescription bottles to be reused overseas. Preparing your items to be recycled at REmarket is simple — just follow these simple tips: 1️⃣Group items together in individual bags by category. 2️⃣Items should be empty, dry, and as clean as possible. 3️⃣Pill bottles must be empty and clean, with no glue or labels. We hope to see you and your difficult-to-recycle items at our next REmarket on June 12 & 13, 2024, at the St. Lawrence Market! • • • Design credit: @josenarvaez_media Partners: @pact_collective @terracycleca @_earthub @plasticflux @stlawrencemarket @oldtowntoronto Special thanks: @jboncamera • • • #recycling #recyclingproject #reuse #upcycle #dontwasteit #wastereduction #zerowaste #sustainability #livinggreen #greentoronto #sustainabletoronto #torontoevents #stlawrencemarket

♻️💻Did you know that our partner Renewed Computer Technology (RCT) does much more than recycle e-waste? RCT is a charitable nonprofit, and its primary goal is actually to refurbish and reuse as many items as possible, making essential technologies accessible to learners, educators, and organizations in need throughout Canada. Of course, items that cannot be renewed and reused are responsibly recycled wherever possible, keeping our unwanted tech out of landfills. To put your unneeded technology to good use, consider donating it to RCT at our next REmarket, which is being held on June 12 & 13, 2024, at the St. Lawrence Market (@stlawrencemarket ) in Old Town Toronto. We currently accept the following items: Computers (laptop and desktop) Cell phones (all brands and types) Computer monitors TVs Gaming systems Printers and scanners Landline phones Cords, cables, and chargers Keyboards and mouses Storage devices Don’t see your item on this list? Feel free to bring it by REmarket anyway! Even if RCT can’t use it, most other technological items can be diverted into our FreeMarket event or accepted by The Salvation Army. Technology Tip: Don’t forget to wipe your devices of any personal data! While RCT also removes personal data from all devices they refurbish, wiping your device yourself is the best way to ensure that your privacy is protected. Hope to see you (and your previously loved tech items) at the next REmarket! • • • Design credit: @josenarvaez_media Special thanks: @jboncamera @stlawrencemarket @oldtowntoronto • • • #wastereduction #sustainability #recycling #refurbishment #upcycle #reuse #donatehere #donations #torontoevents #torontononprofit #canadiannonprofit #circulareconomy #itsnottrash #greentoronto #sustainabletoronto #slnaremarket #stlawrencemarket

♻️🚬 Did you know that the SLNA-WRG has launched a cigarette recycling program in collaboration with TerraCycle Canada? In addition to the 24 cigarette butt recycling receptacles that are now dispersed throughout the St. Lawrence area, we are now collecting cigarette butts at our REmarket events. Preparing your butts for recycling is easy: just put them together in a clear plastic bag (it’s okay if some cigarette ash is included) and bring them on over to REmarket. One of our volunteers will take the bag from you and add it to our collection, which will then be shipped to TerraCycle Canada for recycling. It’s that simple! We can’t wait to see you at our next REmarket event on June 12 & 13, 2024, at the St. Lawrence Market in Old Town Toronto. :) • • • Design credit: @josenarvaez_media Partners: @terracycleca Special thanks: @stlawrencemarket @oldtowntoronto @jboncamera • • • #stlawrencemarket #slnaremarket #terracycle #recycle #wastereduction #putlitterinitsplace #zerowaste #circulareconomy #cigarettelitter #smokers #cigarettes #greentoronto #sustainabletoronto #toronto #buttrecycling #cigarettebutts #fightclimatechange

♻️🩼🦾 Did you know that many valuable items, such as mobility aids and prostheses, end up in the landfill? These items are often still usable and could be a life-changing form of assistance for someone in need. At REmarket, we collect usable (i.e., not broken) prostheses and mobility aids, including all kinds of crutches, wheelchairs, canes, walkers, walking casts, and prosthetic devices. Prostheses, canes, crutches, and walking aids are donated to a local charity called Prosthetics for Foreign Donation (PFFD), while all other items are made directly accessible to community members in need via our FreeMarket event and/or donated to The Salvation Army. You can help give the gift of mobility by donating your unneeded prostheses and mobility aids to our next REmarket event on June 12 & 13, 2024, at the St. Lawrence Market (@stlawrencemarket ) in Old Town Toronto. We hope to see you there! • • • Design credit: @josenarvaez_media Partner: @pffdinc Special thanks: @oldtowntoronto @jboncamera @salvationarmycanada • • • #torontoevents #donatehere #stlawrencemarket #slnaremarket #recycle #reuse #wastreduction #circulareconomy #mobilitymatters #prosthesis #mobilityaids #greentoronto #sustainabletoronto #zerowaste #pffdinc #keepitoutofthelandfill
