Port Coquitlam residents can avoid putting plastic bags, glass containers and electronics in the landfill during Earth Week.
Saturday, the city will open a recycling depot at Gates Park (2300 Reeve St.) for residents to toss their unwanted wares.
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the city will accept a number of recyclable goods including Styrofoam (white only), lightbulbs, batteries and computers; however, renovation and household hazardous waste as well as large machines won’t be allowed.
The recycling drop-off coincides with PoCo’s 10th annual citywide garage sale, happening from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on April 21.
