City clarifies upcoming recycling changes
KAMLOOPS – Nearly four years after Multi-Material BC began to take over residential recycling in the province, it has reached an agreement to add Kamloops to its service.
City of Kamloops Streets and Environmental Services Manager Glen Farrow says there will be little will change for the average resident.
“We will still be collecting recycling with the same trucks, same day, same collection routes. The simplicity of our system, one stop shop, co-mingled product mix, and we are thankful for that,” said Farrow. “The small tweaks to the system mean no glass or soft plastics in the recycling mix, so plastic bags and glass will have to go to the recycling depots.”
