Summer. Please remember that a human handles your garbage, and in this heat it gets smelly quickly. Keep it clean, and if you have a lot of recycling, please take it to the Recycling Centre. All cardboard must be flattened and tied, and the maximum size we can take is 30” x 30” x 8”.

Here’s how we like it at the roadside:

4 Separate Categories

1. Glass; in a container we can take away – all glass, including refundable

2. Refundable Items; in a container we can take away – includes plastic, aluminum, alcohol, pop, juice and water but not milk cartons (Mixed Recyclables)

3. Mixed Recyclables; in a container we empty - clean, loose and mixed. No soft plastics, Styrofoam, glass, or tissue. See http://recyclinginbc.ca/program/mmbc-materials-list/ for a complete list of acceptable

4. Landfill - one or two clean, securely tied bags weighing less than 10 kg. each

A heartfelt thank you from Ian, Gordy, Henry, and Elijah. Questions? Call Henry 935-6940
