Solid Waste Info

Please do not bring any clothes, shoes, or cloth materials to our Free Store (rodents love that stuff!).  Instead take them to the Chemainus Thrift Store.

Please do not bring books or magazines to the Free Store.  The 49th Parallel General Store, near the Chemainus Ferry, will happily take them.

The Volunteers and Staff of the Solid Waste yard DEEPLY APPRECIATE everyone who has been cleaning their recyclable materials prior to bringing them to the Solid Waste yard.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call 250-246-2099.

Extra Cranberries

Thanks to everyone who supported our school fundraiser by purchasing Yellowpoint cranberries! Due to a small ordering error, we ended up with 6 x1 kg bags left over.

But our mistake could be your good fortune! The cranberries are for sale for $8 per bag and they will be put in the freezer until sold. First come, first served. Please contact Kelly Bannister to purchase at kelly_bannister@telus.net
