Soft Plastics
Residents in Southeast New Brunswick are now asked to no longer place soft plastics—such as plastic wrap, grocery bags, bread bags, and bubble wrap—into their blue recycling bags. This change aligns with the region's transition to an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program, which aims to enhance recycling efficiency and reduce contamination.
Proper Disposal Methods:
- Dedicated Drop-Off Locations: To recycle soft plastics, bring them to designated drop-off depots or utilize the Mobile Eco-Depot services. These facilities are equipped to handle soft plastics appropriately, ensuring they are processed correctly.
- Clear Garbage Bags: If you choose not to recycle soft plastics, please dispose of them in your clear garbage bags.
