Recycle program expanding
Starting October 1, 2026, you can now recycle even more materials in your blue bag including hot and cold drink cups, film plastic and foam meat trays and take out containers!
As part of the provincial Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program, these changes will standardize recycling across the province, make recycling easier for residents, improve recovery rates and help advance a circular economy in Alberta.
Strathcona County has two recycling stations, Broadview Enviroservice Station and Ardrossan Recycle Station, plus monthly recycling events in South Cooking Lake.
