Swap and donate in Québec City

Updated June 12, 2026

The capital has its own app to give everyday objects a second life. On Jetroque, thousands of Québec City residents post, exchange and donate in just a few clicks — from Old Québec to Limoilou, from Sainte-Foy to Charlesbourg.

A 100% Quebec-made app, deployed in the capital

Jetroque was founded in Montréal in 2024, but its natural territory extends across the entire province — starting with its national capital, Québec City. Saint-Roch, Limoilou, Sainte-Foy, Sillery, Old Québec, Beauport, Charlesbourg: wherever you live in the greater region, you can swap or donate your items to a neighbour in just a few clicks.

The service is free to post, swap or donate. And for residents of the Québec City area who want peace of mind, the 60-day pickup guarantee allows Jetroque to come pick up any item that hasn't found a taker, and pass it along to a local non-profit partner.

Free home pickup within 60 days

This is Jetroque's signature service, deployed in Québec City and its surrounding area. If your item hasn't found a taker within 60 days of posting:

  1. The app automatically offers you a pickup once the 60 days are up.
  2. You choose a time slot from those available based on our regional transport partner's routes.
  3. You prepare the item, accessible at the entrance of your home.
  4. Our team comes by, photographs the item for traceability, and delivers it to a recognized non-profit partner in the greater Québec City area (reuse centres, community organizations, thrift stores).
Good to know: this service is included with Jetroque+ ($97 CAD/year) or free for residents of a Partner City. Check your borough's status directly in the app.
