Recycle BC

Recycle BC is a not-for-profit organization responsible for residential packaging and paper product recycling throughout British Columbia, servicing over 1.8 million households or over 98% of BC.

We ensure packaging and paper product is collected from households and recycling depots, sorted and responsibly recycled. Recycle BC provides recycling services either directly to communities or by working in partnership with local governments, First Nations, private companies, and other non-profit organizations.156 communities participate in our recycling collection program and more are serviced by our recycling depots. Each year approximately 186,000 tonnes of material is collected from households and depots.

Our program is funded by businesses, like retailers, manufacturers and restaurants that supply packaging and paper product to BC residents, shifting costs away from homeowners.
