Exciting Updates for Delburne's Recycling Program
Circular Materials will be taking the lead managing the Village of Delburne’s recycling program. This transition brings fresh opportunities to enhance our community’s commitment to sustainable practices. Residents can look forward to the same reliable service, with added benefits of improved efficiency and a stronger focus on environmental stewardship.
On October 3, 2022, the Alberta Extended Producer Responsibility Regulation was approved for single-use products, packaging, and paper products. Circular Materials is operating as the not-for-profit Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) in Alberta that supports producers in meeting their obligations under the Regulation.
What does Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) mean?
EPR is a framework in which producers (businesses that supply paper and packaging to residents) are responsible for managing the end-of-life management of these materials. EPR enables innovation, operational efficiencies, increased standard levels, and access to materials. It is recognized as one of the most effective mechanisms to improve recycling rates.
What does this transition mean for residents?
During this time, Albertans will not notice any differences to their recycling schedule and they will still be able to recycle the same materials as before. Property owners will see a reduction on their Delburne Utility Bill as they will no longer be charged a recycling fee. This change will be reflected on the April’s services bill which is processed in May.
Residents with recycling questions or needing to report a missed collection can contact the Village of Delburne’s contractor which is E360 Solutions: 587-217-1975 or .
