NEWS RELEASE
NIAGARA REGION
************************
Beginning Jan. 1 2024, Niagara Region’s residential recycling program will no
longer be managed by the Region and responsibility for the program will be taken
on by Circular Materials, a producer responsibility organization that is
administering contracts for Blue Box (which includes Grey Box in Niagara)
material across the province.
This change is in response to Provincial regulations calling for municipal
recycling programs in Ontario to transition to the primary producers of food and
beverage products and packaging that end up in the residential Blue Box program.
Starting in the new year, if residents have recycling program questions or
require new or replacement Blue or Grey Boxes, they will need to contact the
collection contractor for their area:
* Miller Waste Systems – Fort Erie, Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Port
Colborne, St. Catharines, Welland: 1-833-621-0726 or area19@millerwaste.ca
* GFL Environmental Inc. – Grimsby, Lincoln, Pelham, Thorold, Wainfleet, West
Lincoln: 1-855-769-3760 or niagararecycling@gflenv.com
For information about what is accepted in the Blue and Grey Box, residents can
visit Circular Materials’ website. Niagara Region will also continue to promote
program information on the Region’s Waste App.

Niagara residents should experience very little change to their recycling
routines. There will be no change to collection days, frequency or collection
time. Residents should continue to have materials at the curb by 7 a.m. on
collection day. Residents can also continue to use the same Blue and Grey Boxes
and recycle the same materials (with the exception of books).
This transition does not affect other waste services. Niagara Region will
continue to collect garbage, Green Bin, leaf and yard waste and large household
items and distribute Green Bins and Kitchen Catchers. At this time, the Region
will continue to provide recycling collection to industrial, commercial and
institutional industrial properties and operate drop-off depots which will
continue to accept Blue and Grey Box material. For these services, continue to
contact Niagara Region’s Waste Info Line at 905-356-4141 or 1-800-594-5542,
wasteinfoline@niagararegion.ca or Niagara Region’s website.
> "We have been working with Circular Materials to ensure the transition of the
> Blue Box program transition as seamless as possible. Residents in Niagara can
> continue to expect their recycling and waste collection to remain consistent
> over the transition."
>
> Catherine Habermebl, Director Waste Management Services
> “I applaud the Provincial government’s move to an extended producer
> responsibility Blue Box program across Ontario. In the short term, service
> level consistency will be maintained for residents and in the long-term this
> transition provides opportunities to standardize recycling programs, improve
> diversion targets and accountability and encourage a circular economy while
> also helping to reduce the burden on municipal taxpayers.”
>
> Jim Bradley, Regional Chair
