Can you recycle lithium-ion batteries? In your curbside cart, the answer is no! Batteries of all kinds should stay out of WM carts. That means no batteries in recycling or garbage. See hazardous waste drop-off options: bit.ly/4bMDD9S. Learn more: bit.ly/3Ku11Nv.

Batteries are hazardous waste and do not belong in WM carts. They can cause fires in our community, in WM trucks and at recycling facilities. During the summer, it's especially important to safely manage batteries as temperatures rise. Drop-off options: bit.ly/4bMDD9S.

Did you know aluminum cans are infinitely recyclable? It's true. It's also more cost-effective to make a recycled aluminum can than it is to produce a new one! Learn more about recycling aluminum in this short #RecycleRight video from @wastemanagement. heyor.ca/Iof7OQ

Batteries might give life to the world around us, but they can cause fires in WM trucks & facilities. Did you know batteries contain materials harmful to people, animals & the environment? That's why they don't belong in curbside carts. Drop-off options: bit.ly/4bMDD9S.

Lithium-ion batteries surround us in our daily lives, so it’s important to know how to safely store and dispose of them. When it's time to toss out your old batteries, take them to a local drop-off site. Find one near you at call2recycle.org or earth911.com.

Hey BC! Did you know you can #RecycleRight by making your own WM truck costume with recycled materials? If you do, don't forget to tag WM when you share it on social.

Winter reminder for businesses, condos and apartments in BC: Remove snow and ice from alongside, and in front of, rolling containers (and the top of curbside carts) as it may prevent WM trucks from providing service. See the before and after photos to see how it's done!

Standing tall to learn heavy duty mechanics and thank WM! VIU students are working hard on our retired trucks to study engines and truck systems. It’s all thanks to a donation made possible by the WM family serving Nanaimo and neighboring communities.
