Why Recycling During the Holidays Matters

The holidays generate a significant increase in waste, much of which can be recycled. By choosing Depozip, you’re doing your part to keep BC clean and green while enjoying a stress-free recycling experience.

Make the Most of the Holiday Season with a Greener Approach

Recycling to save for the holidays means making an eco-friendly impact while adding a little extra to your holiday budget. Every can, bottle, and metal piece you recycle is one less item in the landfill and one more step toward a greener future. Explore our recycling options with Depozip and at the depot, and let’s work together to make the season a little brighter – both for the planet and your wallet!

Spread the Holiday Cheer

Here’s the best part: Depozip doesn’t just make recycling easy—it can make a difference in your community too. You can choose to donate the value of your returns to local charities, helping those in need during the season of giving.

Let Depozip Help You This Holiday Season

Our elves are standing by to make recycling one less thing to worry about. Whether it’s a mountain of holiday beverage containers or just a regular weekly pickup, Depozip has you covered.

Skip the depot and let Depozip take care of the rest. Schedule your pickup today and enjoy a stress-free holiday season!

Happy Holidays from the Depozip team! 🎁

Regional Recycling is proud to work with the Major Appliance Recycling Roundtable (MARR) the not-for-profit organization that manages British Columbia’s recycling program for end-of-life major household appliances. Working on behalf of appliance manufacturers and other regulated producers, MARR helps ensure that unwanted appliances are collected, recycled, and processed responsibly across the province.

Operating under BC’s Recycling Regulation, MARR oversees an approved stewardship program that keeps valuable materials in circulation, ensures environmentally responsible handling of hazardous components, and helps reduce waste sent to landfill. The program is governed by MARR’s Board of Directors and is designed to make appliance recycling convenient, accessible, and environmentally responsible for British Columbians.

In addition to Regional Recycling, there are over 200 certified Major Appliance Recycling Roundtable (MARR) collection sites throughout BC that make it easy to recycle responsibly. There is no charge to drop off eligible appliances, and you can be confident that every appliance is processed safely, with recyclable materials recovered and hazardous components handled by licensed professionals.
