Appliances pick up

Is your refrigeration or freezing appliance reaching the end of its life?

Is your appliance one of the covered products?

The first step is to validate if you are a business covered by the Regulation and whose recycling is provided for by the SORAC program.

1. Collection of your end-of-use appliance when purchasing a new one:

Free pickup will be offered by some members on a voluntary basis when new appliances are delivered. Check with your supplier to determine if they are a voluntary collection member.

IMPORTANT : It should be noted that pickup and transportation must be offered free of charge to clients for their appliances that are ready to be loaded into the truck, i.e., next to the door. Members that agree to take back an appliance but need to move it from inside the building to outside are free to charge the customer for the “uninstallation” or “relocation” of the appliance.

2. Take your appliance to one of our private drop-off points:

Private drop-off points located in some major citie centers allow you to drop off your appliances there.

IMPORTANT : It should be noted that you must contact the person in charge of the drop-off point to make an appointment before bringing your appliance at its end-of-use.

3. One-time pick-up of several appliances at the same place

It could be possible to organize a specific collection for the pick-up of several appliances which are at the end of their life and are gathered at the same location.

Contact SORAC to assess the possibilities and plan the collection: 1-888-728-9169

Étant donné le démarrage du programme,
un processus de collecte sera implanté
en trois phases.

Pilot project

Voluntary collection of appliances from SORAC members – end of January 2023

Phase 1

Private deposits – fall 2023

The establishment of partnerships to offer owners of appliances that are at the end of their life access to private drop-off points across Quebec will be carried out.

Phase 2

Collection upon request starting in 2024

A network of public drop-off points and a free, on-call collection service will be gradually deployed across Quebec during 2024 in order to collect your appliances directly from your establishment.
