The borrowable trash pickers are designed with durability and functionality in mind, featuring sturdy construction and extended reach for collecting litter from various locations. They are available for loan at no cost to library cardholders, with a borrowing period of up to one week.

Isabelle Tremblay, Director of the Vaudreuil-Dorion Municipal Library, emphasized the convenience of the new service, saying,


"We are thrilled to expand our Library of Things collection to include trash pickers, providing residents with easy access to tools that promote environmental responsibility. By making them readily available, we hope to encourage more individuals to participate in keeping our community clean."



Residents interested in borrowing a trash picker can simply visit the municipal library and inquire at the circulation desk. The initiative has already sparked significant interest among residents eager to contribute to local clean-up initiatives.


With the introduction of borrowable trash pickers, the City of Vaudreuil-Dorion reaffirms its commitment to creating a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable community, where every individual plays a role in preserving the environment for future generations.
