GET GREEN RECYCLING

DECEMBER 2009 NEWSLETTER


 First of all I would like to apologize for not writing a newsletter sooner.  Things were so crazy this past year with the stock markets plummeting it had a huge effect on us.  As I had explained before that Prince Rupert had stopped taking our plastics and jars.  We were stockpiling it in our backyard for the past year.  About a month and a half ago Do Your Part Recycling in Terrace has started taking our plastics.  They have a large amount that they ship and sell in Vancouver.  We have to pay $1.50 per bag for them to take our plastic but we no longer have to take it to Prince Rupert.  We have taken 300 bags so far.  We have about another 50 to go plus about 2 tons of glass.  Thank you so much to Do Your Part Recycling.  Since we are back to normal operations again we can offer the pay for a year, get a month free.  Biweekly will pay $220 for the year and monthly will pay $165.  Also, we will have the refer a friend.  Refer your friends to Get Green Recycling and you will get a month free.  We have lost quite a few customers with the devastating news on Eurocan.  We need bring our numbers back up.   Just a reminder with Christmas around the corner we do accept:

  • gift bagswrapping paper
  • gift tissue

 We do not accept:

  • ribbons
  • bows

 We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for doing an excellent job on their recycling.  Please keep in mind the following items are unacceptable:
