How to dispose of concrete
How to dispose
There are two ways to dispose of concrete depending on whether you have small or large quantities.
Small quantities of concrete
-
Put into your black cart
Put small quantities of concrete into your black cart as garbage.
- Carts have a 60 kg weight limit
- This is about half a cart full when filled with concrete. If you can easily roll your cart, it should be okay
- Break down large pieces of concrete to prevent damage to the garbage truck
- Make sure the lid of the cart can close
Large quantities of concrete
-
Take to a City landfill
Take large loads of concrete and cinder blocks to a City landfill for disposal – charges will apply.
For businesses
If you are a business with concrete to dispose of, they can only be accepted at East Calgary and Spyhill Eco Centre locations. See hours and locations here.
