Recycling, Waste Management, & Sustainability

Recycling and Waste Management

In Nova Scotia, it is standard to sort your waste and recycle. How you sort will depend on your community and region. Learning to recycle can be very difficult, but it is important for your community and the environment. It is a good idea to download or print a copy of your region’s sorting guide and put it near your waste sorting station to ensure you are properly disposed of waste. You can visit Divert NS to find the sorting guide for your community. Speak with your Property Owner about waste removal and collection.
