The Essex-Windsor Solid Waste Authority operates several public facilities, designed to provide residents with disposal options for materials that are no longer needed, wanted or are unusable and/or broken. There are also many ‘recycling’ options for products that can be recycled instead of disposed of.

• Public Drop Off Depot (Windsor): garbage, recyclables, yard waste, electronics, chemical waste, scrap metal, white goods, etc.
• Transfer Station #2 (Kingsville): garbage, recyclables, yard waste, electronics, chemical waste, scrap metal, white goods, etc.
• Regional Recycling Depot (Essex): recyclables, yard waste, electronics, chemical waste, scrap metal, white goods, etc.
