Residents encouraged to provide feedback on single-use items

York Region has launched a survey to obtain feedback on single-use (disposable) items such as how and why people use them. 

Single use items are often made from plastic and are designed to be disposed of after one use. Common examples of single-use items include styrofoam packaging and take-out food containers, plastic grocery bags and cutlery, and coffee cups.

To learn more about single-use items and how you can reduce your single-use item consumption, visit: york.ca/reducewaste. 

Join the conversation by taking the survey before July 30th for a chance to win one of five $100 gift cards to a local sustainable business of your choice! Contest is open to York Region residents only, 18 years of age and over.
