Frequently Asked Questions

How do the Orange Bags work?

We do regular pick ups in your area and send bags to all the homes in Toronto. If you need more bags you can order some onine or you can schedule a pick up if you have a large donation. Simply fill the orange bag with the items you wish to donate, and then put the orange bag out at the end of your drive on the date of pick up. Our team will retrieve the bag and credit our charity partners on your behalf.

To make the donation process simple and stress-free, Recycle Orange offers a service to pick up donations directly from the donors’ homes.

Not at all! Leave the logistics to us and feel free to be on your way the day of your scheduled home pick up after you have left your donation outside.
