TAKE OUR LARGEST CHALLENGE YET!
Help us keep recycling out of our landfills, and reduce illegal dumping. The City of
Surrey offers curbside pick‑up services for six (6) large items every year for single
family homes and up to eight (8) items for homes with registered secondary
suites! We do the heavy lifting for you, separating the recyclable items to ensure
they stay out of our landfills. This program not only supports Surrey’s 80% waste
diversion goal, but it also saves you time and money.
Challenge your household to use this service next time you have unwanted
household items — and let us do the work for you! Visit surrey.ca/largeitems
for more information. Or set up your large item pickup today in two easy steps:
1. Call the City of Surrey Waste Collection Hotline at 604-590-7289 (Option 3) or
   book online at surrey.ca/largeitems to arrange your pick‑up date.
2. On the day of your appointment (or the evening before), place the large items
   at the curb. Please ensure all items are at your curb by 7:30 am.
Items placed at curbside without an appointment are considered illegal
dumping and will not be collected. This may also result in fines.

TIPS
COOKING OIL AND GREASE
For small amounts of oil or grease, wipe the pot
or pan clean with a paper towel and place the
paper in your organics cart. For large amounts,
pour the oil or grease into a tin can to cool and
solidify before disposing into your organics cart
(without the can).
Ensure food or yard waste is already in your cart
to help soak up any cooking oil!

UNACCEPTABLE MATERIALS
Plastics are not permitted in the organics cart
including biodegradable or compostable bags.
Carts containing unacceptable materials
will not be collected.
