We’re hosting the Central Clean Sweep on November 8, 2025

CNWM is inviting residents to join a region-wide Central Clean Sweep on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the CNWM Regional Site at Norris Arm North. The event will run from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

This special event will highlight several important recycling programs available in Newfoundland and Labrador, including:

Throughout the event, visitors will receive informational handouts, enjoy refreshments, and have a chance to enter prize draws, including a grand prize, to wrap up the event.

“This event is all about making recycling easier and more accessible for residents,” said Geoff Beaton, Regional Outreach Coordinator with CNWM. “By working with organizations like UOMA, EPRA, and PCA, we’re ensuring that materials like oil, electronics, and paint are disposed of properly – keeping our communities cleaner and our environment healthier.”
