We’re working towards returning to recycling
Thank you to our community, industry, and partners for the incredible outpouring of support we’ve received after the fire. It’s meant the world to us while we get ready to return to recycling.
We’re working diligently to reopen at a new location soon and will share developments with you as we can, but in the meantime, you can email us at .
We’re also still able to issue electronic payments for bulk accounts or bottle drives. Don’t be afraid to reach out if you have any questions about what that process will look like now.
As always, thank you for your patience and support! This process was never going to be easy, but it’s been made easier with a community like you behind us.

A dirty job that helps keep our city clean
At Nechako Bottle Depot, we are committed to making recycling easy with our various programs.
While our three main programs are for beverage containers, electronics, and unused paint, we also have the ability to recycle some hazardous household materials, and we are pleased to be a go-to Return-It depot for bottle drive fundraisers in our community.
We understand that beverage container refunds help supplement the income of many of our customers, and as Prince George’s only full-refund bottle depot, we refund $1.20/dozen for beer bottles and cans.
Our hours of operation are Mondays through Saturdays from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm, and we are closed on Sundays and all statutory holidays.
