Although certain products can be useful around the house, they can prove extremely harmful to the environment when they end up in landfill sites, contaminating the water and soil for many years. Additionally, recycling helps reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing new products. That’s why RONA has established a voluntary national recycling program in over 300 participating stores across Canada.

How can RONA help with recycling?

Contact your store to see whether it participates in the program.
Check the list of accepted products below.
If your store doesn’t accept this service or the product you wish to recycle isn’t accepted in our stores, consult the tab for your province to learn about our partners, or contact your municipality.
