Recycling
Recycling is essential for keeping our city clean and reducing landfill waste. It transforms materials into new products like cans, clothes, insulation, and more. At NorQuest College, we promote good recycling habits, such as removing bottle caps, rinsing containers, and keeping labels on. However, it’s crucial to avoid bad practices like crushing bottles, mixing in food waste, or including non-recyclables. Join us in recycling correctly to support our community initiatives, including funding field trips through our local Bottle Depot. Remember, use blue bins for recycling and black bins for garbage!
