One Unified Deposit

Do you know all of the different types of beverage containers that have a deposit refund in BC?

Many people are unaware of all of the container types they can recycle for a refund. Please check our ‘Can I recycle this container?’ article to learn more about the beverage containers you can recycle for a refund.

Please Note: While we do recycle them, no deposit is paid for milk items so we’re unable to provide a refund.

Did you know that your plastic bottles can be recycled and reused as polyester fleece and carpeting? Or that recycling one glass bottle conserves enough energy to power a 100-watt light bulb for four hours? By choosing to recycle your cans and bottles, you’re reducing greenhouse gas emissions, decreasing the pollution rates of our air and water supplies, and conserving overall energy.

To create a more sustainable environment, our Regional Recycling Depot in Richmond has the infrastructure and knowledge to handle all bottles and cans. Make a difference today by dropping off your recyclables at our Richmond location.
