Eco friendly productions still generate craft packaging.
Craft service packaging audit
Flatten cardboard. Soft plastics need correct streams. Food scraps go to organics where enrolled.
Audit habit
Photograph sorted stations for wrap reports if the production asks.
Overflow bins
After recycling pulls, mixed packaging junk can use a short driveway bin.
When a bin fits
We deliver the bin. You load it. We haul it away. A 20-yard junk bin is the usual starting size. We also have a 15-yard bin, but it is often sold out, so ask when you book.
On your driveway or yard, the bin needs no permit. For the street, boulevard or lane, some cities require a permit, so check first. If yours does, send us the dates and we will time the delivery.
Keep batteries, electronics, propane tanks, paint, solvents, pharmaceuticals and asbestos out of a junk bin. Search Metro Vancouver Recycles or call 604 732 9253 if you are unsure.
Our disposal bins and what not to put in a bin pages cover the standing limits.
FAQ
What should a craft service packaging audit record? Record the materials in each sorted station. Keep food scraps separate and take station photos if the production requests them.
What size bin should I start with? The 20-yard junk bin is the usual first pick. Ask when booking about other sizes. The 15-yard is often sold out.
Do I need a permit on my driveway? No. A driveway or yard needs no permit. Street, boulevard or lane rules depend on your City. Tell us permit dates if a street drop is approved.
Where do I check an item I am unsure about? Search the regional recycling directory or call the Recycling Hotline at 604 732 9253. Do not guess on paint, batteries, electronics or chemicals.
Can asbestos ever go in a Trash King bin? No. Asbestos is never permitted in any Trash King bin. Use a licensed abatement contractor when asbestos is present.
