Watching Our Waste-Line
Residents and businesses of the SQCRD have recycled nearly seven thousand metric tonnes of material over the past three years, saving precious space in our landfills and conserving natural resources. Part of this success has been the expansion of products we accept though agreements with various Stewardship agencies. As a result, we now accept electronics (telephones, stereo equipment, cameras, video recorders, DVD & VCR players, iPods), fluorescent lights, dry cell batteries and cell phones, floor care appliances, lead acid batteries at the Regional Recycling Depot in Prince Rupert. For a list of what is accepted at depots and drop-off bins on Haida Gwaii, see Recycling.
