Municipalities, waste authorities and commissions, First Nations and Métis Settlements, collectively referred to as municipalities, are the front line of the Recycling Programs. They have set up 450 electronics, paint and tire recycling depots (collection sites) to date, ensuring that wherever you live or do business in Alberta, there is a depot nearby.
