End of Municipal Blue Bin Sorting at Recycle-Action

Recycle-Action, your recyclable materials sorting centre in Hawkesbury, wishes to inform all its customers and residents of the United Counties of Prescott and Russell that, following major changes in the collection and sorting of recyclable materials imposed by the Ontario government, they will no longer be providing blue bin service in the region.

“It’s very disappointing to be put out of business like this after so much effort. We provided good local service. We are now left in a position where we must roll up our sleeves and reinvent ourselves to continue to offer employment to our staff,” says Robert Lessard, Director of Operations.

Recycle-Action remains open to its commercial customers. The company will also continue to accept cardboard, clean styrofoam and electronic waste (e-waste). Please note that drop-off fees for these items will now apply.

Recycle-Action, a Convex Group company, has been operating in the Hawkesbury industrial park for nearly 12 years and proudly offering jobs to people with disabilities. Rest assured that Groupe Convex is working rigorously to find new opportunities to protect Recycle-Action employees.

If you have any questions about recycling management and blue bin collection, please contact your municipality directly.
