The Partner City Programme
Quebec cities spend more than $1.2 billion a year on the collection, transport, and landfilling of waste. Yet over 30% of what ends up in the landfill is still perfectly functional.
Skyrocketing costs
Landfill levies, transport, bulky-item handling: every tonne buried costs taxpayers more and more.
Dissatisfied residents
Reducing collection frequency triggers thousands of complaints. Bulky items left on sidewalks degrade neighbourhoods.
Hard-to-reach targets
Quebec's residual materials management policy sets ambitious objectives — difficult to meet without new tools.
One agreement, three fronts
Environment, public finances, and social cohesion — here is what the Partner City programme concretely delivers to your territory.
A free citizen app
Your residents swap and donate to neighbours in 10 seconds, with built-in AI. A modern, engaging service at no cost to them — a source of local pride.
Guaranteed 60-day at-home collection
No functional item ends up in the landfill: if no one claims it, our teams pick it up free of charge at the resident's door — fewer bulky-item calls for your services.
Tracked donations to accredited non-profits
Collected items are never resold: they are given to accredited community organizations on your territory. Every donation is documented and viewable by the City.
Municipal dashboard
Kilograms diverted, CO₂ avoided, beneficiary non-profits: real-time documented impact, ready for your provincial reports and public communications.
Becoming a Partner City in 3 steps

Jetroque Pro: the reuse solution that serves your EPR and ESG objectives
Office furniture, IT equipment, hardware: your end-of-life assets are a growing obligation — and an opportunity to demonstrate your impact.
EPR, in plain language
Extended producer responsibility (EPR) makes businesses accountable for the end of life of the products they place on the market or use. In Quebec, the EPR regime overseen by RECYC-QUÉBEC is progressively extending to new product categories. In France, the AGEC law created EPR streams covering furniture and electrical equipment, among others.
The hierarchy is clear: reuse before recycling, recycle before landfilling. That is exactly where Jetroque comes in — at the top of the 3R hierarchy, with documented traceability you can integrate into your declarations and reports. Jetroque complements your compliance approach; consult your legal adviser or eco-organization for your specific obligations.
Collection of your end-of-life assets
Furniture, IT equipment, hardware: we pick up your lots directly on-site, on a date that works for you.
Priority reuse, never resold
Your assets are reused through the Jetroque community or donated to accredited Quebec non-profits. The top of the 3R hierarchy, documented.
Per-lot reuse certificates
Each collection generates a certificate: inventory, destination, beneficiary non-profit. A complete audit trail for your declarations.
Annual ESG impact report
Tonnage diverted, CO₂ avoided (public methodology), organizations supported: figures ready for your CSR, ESG reports, and communications.
Three moments where Jetroque Pro makes all the difference
Office relocation
Hundreds of workstations, chairs, and filing cabinets find a second life instead of ending up in a skip — with a certificate to prove it.
IT refresh cycle
Working monitors, laptops, and peripherals are reused or donated to organizations — instead of gathering dust in a storage room.
Renovation surplus
Materials and equipment from your construction sites are diverted from the landfill and put to use locally.
Already proven traction
Within just a few months, Jetroque was incubated at La Base HEC Montréal and caught the attention of Radio-Canada.
Frequently asked questions from cities and businesses
What is extended producer responsibility (EPR)?
EPR makes businesses accountable for the end of life of the products they place on the market. In Quebec, the regime is overseen by RECYC-QUÉBEC and is progressively expanding to new categories. In France, the AGEC law created EPR streams covering furniture, among others. In practice: recover, reuse, or recycle rather than landfill.
Does Jetroque replace my eco-organization or EPR programme?
No. Jetroque complements your approach: we maximize reuse — the highest option in the 3R hierarchy — with documented traceability that you integrate into your declarations and reports. Consult your legal adviser or eco-organization for your specific obligations.
How much does the Partner City programme cost?
The agreement is structured according to the size of the municipality and the scope of service. The idea: transform a portion of current landfill costs into a local social and environmental investment, with an estimated reduction of up to 35%. Write to us for a free assessment.
How are donations to non-profits tracked?
Every collected item is documented: origin, date, accredited beneficiary non-profit. Cities and businesses receive a detailed report — kilograms diverted, CO₂ avoided, organizations supported. No item is ever resold.
Is the service available everywhere?
The app works everywhere. The guaranteed 60-day collection and the Partner City and Jetroque Pro programmes are currently deployed in Quebec, with priority in the Greater Montreal area.
What impact evidence is available for our ESG reports?
An annual impact report: tonnage diverted, CO₂ equivalent avoided (methodology published on our Impact page), items reused, and beneficiary non-profits. Per-lot reuse certificates are available for businesses.
