Recycling Education Tour

Discover what happens to your recyclables after collection. See how your yellow-lid bin reduces landfill, recovers valuable materials, and protects the environment.

Our facility features a custom-built Education Room designed to make learning about recycling both engaging and informative.

During your session, you’ll:

• Explore the creative Education Room with direct views of the recycling process
• Join the Waste Education team for a fun and interactive discussion about recycling and waste management
• Learn what can and can’t go in your yellow-lid bin and get your recycling questions answered
• Enjoy a complimentary morning or afternoon tea
