We can help with the collection of bulky items such as couches, kitchen tables, shelves, and other large household items that are in good condition and suitable for donation. These items are redirected to local organizations and families in need whenever possible.

Because bulky items require special coordination, please email us at info@lebonbac.com with photos and basic details.

Please note that we cannot accept items that are damaged, soiled, or not suitable for donation. For items that do not meet these criteria, we recommend contacting your municipal services for alternative disposal options.
