Saint-Basile-le-Grand council voted unanimously on Nov. 11 to apply to join the regional recycling centre in Mont-Saint-Hilaire. The regional council is expected to consider the request Nov. 25.
If approved, Saint-Basile-le-Grand residents could use the regional centre at 60 rue Fisher starting Jan. 11, 2027. The city says the move would expand annual opening hours from 174 to 1,706 and allow residents to drop off more types of material.
Residents can still bring bulky and recoverable items to the Léon-Taillon municipal garage on Nov. 21 and Dec. 12 from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. The city says it will release more details on how to use the regional centre.
