Recycling Changes

Recycling collection services at all Regional District transfer stations are changing, this includes the two bins in Mackenzie located behind the Mackenzie Firehall and next to the Municipal Office.

The contractor who currently provides the recycling drop off bins and hauling services is unable to continue the service past May 31, 2024. This means there will be a service interruption for recycling drop off at Regional District transfer stations beginning May 31, 2024.

The Regional District is exploring other service options available through Recycle BC, the organization responsible for residential packaging and paper product recycling in BC.

Recycle BC has provided an offer to the Regional District to establish principal collection depots at the Mackenzie Select Waste Landfill and Regional Transfer Station, Quinn Street Regional Recycling Depot, and Valemount Regional Transfer Station. A timeline is being developed to determine when these depots would be operational. It is anticipated to be sometime this fall.
