14 - Orono Weekly Times 1937 - 2012 · Celebrating 75 Years Wednesday, February 1, 2012 Durham Region Porcelains and electronics now part of "call-in" curbside service Durham Region introduces changes to its scrap metal residential collection services in Ajax, Pickering, Clarington, Scugog, Uxbridge and Brock. Starting February 13, Durham Region is making important changes to its residential scrap metal curb side collection services in the six municipalities that it services. These changes should result in more materials being diverted from landfill to recycling markets. Metal goods such as appliances, in addition to porcelain items including toilets and sinks, and unwanted electronic waste, will now be managed through a "call-in" service. To have these types of items collected, residents are asked to call 1-800-667-5671 and schedule a collection. Collection dates will be assigned by Regional staff based on a pre-determined collection schedule. There is no limit to the amount of metal goods, porcelain or e-waste that can be set out ­ the more you set out...the more we recycle but you must call for collection. Collection of bulky items such as furniture does not change in these municipalities. There is still a two-item per set out limit for bulky items. Residents are not required to call in to schedule collection of bulky items. Residents of these municipalities will receive information about these service level improvements in late January or early February. For more information on these service level improvements including complete listings of acceptable metal, porcelain and electronic waste, please call the Region of Durham at 1800-667-5671, visit the Region's website at www.durhamregionwaste.ca, or email the Region at waste@durham.ca.
