Living Green Barrie is hosting a community electronics recycling event and food drive on April 25, 2026, to help residents in Barrie, Ontario, safely get rid of old gadgets. The Earth Day 2026 E-waste Drop Off & Food Drive will run from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Quantum Lifecycle Partners.

The collection will take place at 220 John Street at a facility that is specialized in recycling and processing electronic waste. By bringing items to this location, neighbours can keep hazardous materials out of local landfills and participate in the city’s climate action efforts.

In addition to accepting old electronics, the organizers are running a food drive to collect donations for the community. The event is designed to give residents a simple way to protect the environment and support local food security at the same time.

Quantum Lifecycle Partners is an established facility that ensures all collected devices are handled according to professional standards for recycling and data security. This one-day event provides a practical way for the public to participate in Earth Day activities.
