Residents of Gananoque are encouraged to take part in Curbside Give Away Day on Saturday, August 9, 2025. The initiative invites locals to place gently used, unwanted household items at the curb clearly marked “FREE,” starting at 7:00 a.m. It’s a great opportunity to upcycle and repurpose furniture, toys, and other goods while keeping them out of landfills.
Items not picked up must be removed by 7:00 p.m. the same day to keep sidewalks and streets clear.
The event promotes sustainability and community sharing by giving usable items a second life. For more information, contact the Town of Gananoque’s Public Works Department at 613-382-2149 ext. 1613 or email pwinfo@gananoque.ca.
