Material Collection Suspension – Collector Resources - Recycle BC

Updated December 23, 2021:

We are pleased that we are now able to resume collection of foam packaging at depots province-wide, effective Monday December 27. This lifts the final remaining collection suspension, which affected glass bottles and jars and foam packaging over the past month.

The decision to resume collection will be made by depots who collect on our behalf. We expect most will resume collection on Monday. However, given it is the holiday season, some may choose to delay collection of foam for a few days to manage other materials. For example, London Drugs locations will not be resuming collection of foam until after the holidays.
