Election Sign Recycling
Durham Region's Sign Recycling program provides candidates, residents and local municipalities the opportunity to recycle dedicated loads of signs free of charge. This does not include signs found in violation of By-Law #76-2017. Signs may be dropped off at any of Durham Region's three waste management facilities.
Acceptable signs include all election signs and any other temporary signs made from corrugated plastic, plastic film or paperboard. Wooden stakes and wire mounts must be removed from the signs and are also accepted for recycling.
Please note that loads of acceptable signs delivered mixed with other waste materials are subject to the regular disposal fee.
Candidates who are considering future campaigns are encouraged to retain their signs for reuse.
