I also like how their hours with alternatively Early Morning (8:00 am) opening and Late Evening (8:00 pm) closing. Here you can drop off Styrofoam, Tires, Fluorescent Lights/Tubes and other recyclable items that cannot be recycled curbside using the Blue Box. You can also pick up extra Green/Blue Box here or exchange damaged Green/Blue Box here without charges as long as the box has Markham logo on it. Staff here always really helpful in sorting out the stuff I dropping off and of course I was just so happy to get a brand new green and blue bin!

Never, ever, ever pay anyone to take your metal waste b/c there are people who pay YOU!…read more Lockdown, for me, meant a lot of decluttering. I have an area in my basement where I keep metal waste. Just household knickknacks, e-waste and decommissioned appliances I've set aside over the years b/c I know they don't belong in the garbage. ANYTHING that contains metal, this place will accept them. Things I had were: - USB phone charging cables - Old pots & pans - Broken small appliances ie. electric kettle, hairdryer, iron, rice cooker, hand mixer - Christmas lights from the 90's (lol) - Burnt out monitors x2 - Rusted rotors I'm all for recycling initiatives. If it doesn't break your back transporting the items then I think it's a simple chore to do to help the landfills. I've been to other metal recycling centers but many of them seem to pull numbers out of thin air which doesn't earn my trust. I found Triune through forums, read great reviews all around so I thought this time I'd give them a try. Location is right off of 401, super convenient. Nothing fancy. It is literally a junkyard. Piles of scrap metal all over the place. Dirt road (lol the guy behind me came in his sparkly clean Porsche, so yeah.. don't do that!) But as messy as the place may seem, they have a system in place, even a POS system (see receipt) which super impressed me! They took each item as it was, I received no judgement here, not like some places where they'll give you attitude for bringing in something small or low quality that's "not worth their time". I'm very pleased with their assistance and service. I will definitely come back to recycle here again. }} How-to: Drive to the end of the road, you'll see their sign. Upon arrival, park as close to the building as you can. Grab a shopping cart, load your items, and they'll help you move the cart up to the loading dock with a forklift. From there, they'll weigh items by category and you'll receive your payout. Easy. Receipt included. If you arrive and feel kinda lost, just flag down anyone who looks like they work there, they're real friendly and will tell you what to do. {{ Friendly reminder for e-waste }} Be sure to clear all sensitive information & personal data before bringing them in!

Tips: - Styrofoam is accepted at this recycling depot…read more - Hours of operation are Monday through Saturday from 9 am till 3 pm. It's closed on Sundays. On Father's Day, I visited my parents before I went out for brunch with friends (one was in town from Hong Kong). I saw that their TV was dead. It was as if the apocalypse had arrived at their home. My parents love watching TV. Channel 36 is all that matters, which is Fairchild TV. It's the Cantonese channel that they love. While I was out with friends, my dad got a new TV. It was huge. I'm not sure how he got it out of his vehicle's trunk and into the garage, but he did. I was heading back for Father's Day dinner. He needed help getting the TV into the house. I helped him carry it inside and onto a stand. I also hooked up their Rogers digital box and had to get Rogers to get the volume working on their Rogers channel changer. We had dinner. My dad quietly approached me afterwards and asked where he could dispose of the styrofoam that protected the new TV in its box. I said Milliken Mills Recycling Depot. I was here a while back with styrofoam and the place accepted it. I told my dad that it was behind the McDonald's that I enjoy frequenting on Wednesday mornings before I head to the office. I drew my dad a map, which has always been my thing. He likes that I do that as he's a map person. What's weird about this place? Its hours of operation. It's worse than banking hours! It's open from 9 am till 3 pm Monday through Saturday. There is at least one person on duty who is available to say yea or nay to your items to be recycled. My dad appreciated how resourceful I can be. The following day, he came here to dispose of the styrofoam. He told me a day after his experience that it was great. I'm glad that it's close by. The hours aren't great if you hold a day job. However, I'm happy that it's open on Saturdays. (208)

Huge sign advising you where to drop items off 2) the price has jumped to $10...still a great deal for a trunk full of garbage 3) the dude in the booth now gives you a printed receipt ! 4) I've bumped my 3 stars to 4 because of the changes Original Review From a strictly environmental standpoint, this place is fantastic, as it allows you to drop of items which you can see your neighbours trying to hide in their garbage bags. You see, the city of Vaughan has very strict garbage rules but a very robust recycling program. I'm allowed 3 bags of garage every two weeks, with unlimited recycling (bottles, cans, paper, cardboard, etc) and food waste (green bin). However, the 3 bag rule encompasses ALL non-blue box (recyclable) and green bin (organic waste) items. For example, if you change a toilet, it counts as an item, which drops your garbage bag allotment down to 2 bags. You can purchase extra garbage "tags" from the city (for a nominal fee) which you place on the additional items, but without those tags, the items are left at the curb....the 3 bag rule is pretty enforced. A few times a year we have "double up" pickups...which allows for 6 bags of garbage/waste, but sometimes you don't want things piling up in the garage until a double up day. The McCleary Environmental Centre is the place that accepts items that we used to throw out in our garbage, but which we now know can harm the environment. Fairly easy to locate, you drive in and dispose of household waste items (drywall, tiles, lightbulbs, scrap metal, etc)....in clearly labelled bins. Most items don't require a disposal fee, other than the cost of getting it down to the McCleary Centre. However, some household waste items require a "fee" to be disposed of......on my last visit I was charged $7 for a trunk-full of stuff. This is where I experienced something which left a sour taste in my mouth...and is quite shocking at the lack of controls in place. The city employee is in a booth...you drive up, advise him what you have to dispose of, he asks where you live, he advises you of the fee (in my case, $7)...you pay cash...and he points you in the right direction. I would suggest you have exact change...as on my last visit, I passed a $10 bill to him and suddenly he became Mr. Chatty. When he finally pointed me in the direction to go, I had to ask for my change. He mumbled something and passed me my $3. Not saying this is this guys practice, but if he pulls this stunt on a regular basis, he could walk out with a pretty penny at the end of his shift (there is nothing in place for the city to monitor the number of cars in/out....so staff could potentially make out like bandits). They really need to put proper procedures into place to prevent the public from being ripped off, as there are unscrupulous people out there (I'm not saying this guy is......but in this case, both myself and my passenger felt like he knew exactly what he was doing). This has only happened once to me, and I've dropped items off a few times (being an avid DIYer has its downside). But still........ I've also dropped off items for their "Restore" program. It's sort of like Goodwill...you bring in gently used (or unused) items that you would normally throw out, and they have an on-site store where they resell the items. Reuse at its best. I've brought in electronics, chairs, lamps, tools, etc)...it's free of charge if the items are deemed acceptable for resale. Profits are kept by the store. So, in summary.....a great place to be environmentally conscious, just bring exact change.
