Our Community Curbside Recycling Network
In January, 2025, the City of Maple Ridge and Ridge Meadows Recycling Society transitioned curbside and apartment recycling collection services in Maple Ridge to direct services provided by Recycle BC, the non-profit organization responsible for printed paper and packaging recycling in BC. They have contracted the curbside collection services to Remple Disposal and multi-family collection services to Waste Control Services.
If you are a resident inquiring about curbside recycling collection, wish to request additional recycling boxes or bags, report a missed collection or have other inquiries related to curbside recycling, please contact Remple Disposal at 778-503-1340 or mapleridge@rempledisposal.com
If you are a multi-family building or property manager inquiring about recycling collection, wish to request additional recycling totes, report a missed collection or have other inquiries related to multi-family recycling, please contact Waste Control Services at 604-986-9777 or recyclebc@wastecontrolservices.com
