Below are the vendors who will be attending Just Purge It 2022, with direct links to their website listing Accepted and/or Not Accepted items. The websites also provide information on how to donate items to the organizations if you are unable to attend the Just Purge It event.
The City of Calgary
This year, the City will supply 3 trucks to collect GARBAGE. There will NOT be a truck dedicated to compostable material (apparently not enough demand). The City will collect compostable material in the garbage trucks but encourage residents to compost what you can in your green bins and only bring larger materials to the event. The link below has a complete list of items that the City will/will not accept at the event:
