Some changes are now in effect as far as recycling in Mississippi Mills.
The changes come about because of Provincial legislation that sees producers now fully responsible for collecting and recycling their materials when residents discard them.
It started July 1st, and the Mississippi Mills recycling program is now managed by Circular Materials Ontario, a national not-for-profit producer.
Emterra Environmental has been contracted to administer the curbside recycling collection in the Municipality.
Officially known as the Blue box Program, locally it involves both the blue and yellow bins residents are used to.
There will be no changes to the current recycling schedule or how you recycle your materials, but on waste collection days, garbage and recycling will be collected in separate trucks.
Residents can still use the “Recycle Coach app” and find recycling information on the Municipality’s website.
Since the municipality is now out of the biz, all inquiries must now be directed to Emterra Environmental:
