Moving to Boucherville
This is a city of homeowners. In the 2021 Census, 84.0% of Boucherville households owned their home, and single-detached houses made up 59.1% of occupied dwellings. People also move less here than elsewhere: 7.7% of residents had changed address in the previous year, against 12.0% in Longueuil. Homes are large: 69.0% of dwellings had three bedrooms or more, and 39.4% were built between 1961 and 1980.
The city is served by autoroutes 20, 25 and 30 and by route 132. It belongs to the agglomération de Longueuil, and that is why its residents use the agglomeration’s ecocentres. If your new address is in Old Boucherville, note that the area is a cited heritage site under Quebec’s Cultural Heritage Act.
A container or materials on the street in front of your home need prior authorization from the City. Even when approved, they must never block the sidewalk, a bike path or an emergency lane. In winter, keep overnight parking in mind too: when snow clearing is planned or under way, it is banned from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. on every street.
Before you leave, the City asks you to take bulky items to the ecocentre or spread your garbage over several weeks instead of putting everything out at once. Bins and bulky items go out no earlier than 8 p.m. the evening before. At the ecocentre you will be asked for proof of residence and the registration certificate of the vehicle, and each address gets 12 free visits a year.
When you arrive, check your bins. The City supplies every address with a 360-litre recycling bin and a 120-litre organics bin, but the garbage bin is yours to buy. If you have a dog, it must be registered, and the licence is free.

Questions about moving to Boucherville
Do I need permission to put a container on the street in Boucherville?
Yes. A container, materials or equipment in the street right-of-way need prior authorization from the City, and they must never block the sidewalk, a bike path or an emergency lane.
How do I get rid of bulky items before a move?
The City asks you to take them to the ecocentre, with proof of residence and the vehicle registration certificate, or to spread your garbage over several weeks. Anything for collection goes out no earlier than 8 p.m. the evening before.
Does the garbage bin come with the house?
No. The City supplies a 360-litre recycling bin and a 120-litre organics bin per address. The garbage bin is bought at your own cost.
Can the truck stay on the street overnight in winter?
Not when snow clearing is planned or under way: overnight parking is then banned from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. on every street in Boucherville.
