Blue Box - Fibres And Containers
The Township of The Archipelago has a two-stream recycling program (fibres and containers), which must be disposed of in separate designated bins. Blue box recycling is accepted at all of the Township's transfer stations and at the Site 9 landfill site.
The Township expects that all residents will participate in recycling and divert these materials from the waste stream. Blue box recycling must be placed in clear plastic bags. All containers to be recycled must be clean.
Plastics numbered 1 through 7 will be accepted for recycling. For more information regarding the blue box recycling program, please view the acceptable waste recycling guide.
Please note that due to health and safety concerns, the Township has changed it's policy and staff will no longer be permitted to handle and/or collect liquor and beer empties for return.
