Recycling is collected every week on your scheduled collection day. Use a blue box or other container; clear blue bags are not accepted.
Recycling makes a difference - it's better for the environment, it leaves space in landfills, it saves money, and it creates jobs.
Below are a few tips to keep in mind when recycling:
- Sorting Recyclables: when recycling is not done right, it costs taxpayers extra
- Use Two Blue Boxes: separate paper products from containers
- Even More Can be Recycled: know the acceptable recyclable materials
- What Doesn't Belong: know common recycling errors
The Community Recycling Centre at 330 South Edgeware Road in St. Thomas also accepts recycling from Central Elgin residents.
