Garbage & Recycling
Since starting a curbside recycling program in 1988, Edmontonians have proudly become national leaders in effective waste management.
Waste and recyclables collected from Edmonton homes are processed at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre, a unique collection of world-class waste facilities that routinely attracts visitors from around the world.
The centre is especially famous for the Edmonton Composting Facility, the destination of Edmonton's residential waste and one of the largest composting facilities in the world.
A second important feature is the Materials Recovery Facility, where recyclables from our Blue Bag and Blue Bin programs are sorted for market.
The new GEEP Electric and Electronic Waste Recycling Facility is where e-waste is processed for recycling.
Edmontonians also demonstrate their concern for the environment by making excellent use of Eco Stations, which are drop-off facilities for household hazardous waste and almost all other waste materials.
