CHANGES TO QUESNEL RECYCLING LOCATIONS

A new Recycle BC depot opens in Quesnel on Dec. 1, 2018 in response to changes in the global recycling market. The new recycling depot, located near the Quesnel landfill, will be a controlled site with an attendant and residents will be able to recycle a broader range of packaging and paper recyclables.

The new site opens as the current recycling drop-off depots close at West Park Mall, Maple Park Mall, Sani-loop and the Quesnel landfill on Nov. 29.

Despite the City’s education campaigns regarding contamination in the depot recycling material, the recyclables from these locations continue to be contaminated and are non-marketable in the current global recycling market.

HOURS & LOCATION

Tuesday to Sunday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The Recycle BC depot will be located near the Quesnel landfill on Carson Pit Road, beside the re-use centre.
