Garbage & Recycling News

You may have noticed the new container at the Recycling and Garbage Yard (the RAGY as I like to call it)! It has arrived because we are in the process of testing a new and potentially more cost effective system for removing our baled 'MMBC eligible' recycled packaging  from Thetis Island. This new system involves a partnership with the CVRD and we are still in the early stages of exploring the arrangement. We don't expect this new system to affect how individuals sort and drop off their recyclables (other then to keep taxes as low as possible!).

Thanks to all of you for continuing to be such great participants in this community operated system!
