What do articles of clothing, paint cans. fake Christmas trees, food items, and wood all have in common? They shouldn’t go in our recycling (blue) bins! There have been multiple instances where recycle loads have been very contaminated by garbage that doesn’t belong in them and according to Loraas, it has been getting worse in Kindersley. It sucks seeing yet another one of our great services being taken advantage of by our residents. Do better. If you’re confused at what can and cannot go into your recycling bins, give Loraas a call or view the recycling & garbage section on our website!

Things that DO belong in your recycle bin include: Cardboard, Household Aluminum & Tin, Mixed Paper, and Plastics with #1-7 Recycling Symbol. Please do not put food contaminated items in recycling (example: pizza in pizza box).
