The District of Sechelt is now a member of Recycle BC. This is a significant benefit to the community and means a few changes in the service. • Recycle BC offers financial incentives to local governments participating in the program. • These incentives will offset the cost of the new organics collection program that will start in the spring of 2020. • With this program, only accepted items can go in the curbside recycling bin – anything not on the accepted list are considered contaminates. • Sechelt must keep contaminates below 3%.
