Looking to recycle something that isn’t packaging or paper? You can drop-off batteries, beer containers, beverage containers, cell phones, electric outdoor power equipment, electronics, lead-acid batteries, major appliances, medications, paint, household hazardous waste, lights, alarms, small appliances, thermostats, tires, used oil and anti-freeze.
In addition, hazardous items like propane canisters, flammable liquids, and lithium-ion batteries can cause serious harm to recycling staff and facilities. Ensure they don’t end up in your recycling bin and are returned to an appropriate depot.
Contact the Recycling Council of BC at rcbc.ca, 1-800-667-4321 or hotline@rcbc.ca for more information and drop-off locations.
Small actions make a big difference. Nature is rooting for you. And so are we.
