Residential Recycling Is Rolling Out
Back to SearchMedicine Hat - The City of Medicine Hat, Environmental Utilities, is holding two information sessions for the Residential Recycling Program. Residents are invited to drop in at either one of the sessions to learn about the program that will roll-out late this spring:
Big Marble Go Centre - Main Lobby
Wednesday April 11, 2018
4 p.m. – 7 p.m.
Hillcrest Church - Coffee House
Thursday April 12, 2018
4 p.m. – 7 p.m.
“These information sessions will the give us another opportunity to engage and educate residents,” said Brian Murphy, General Manager of the City’s Environmental Utilities Division. “At the Spring Home and Garden Show our Environmental Utilities staff had an opportunity to hear, understand and address common concerns and questions. We are pleased that the program has received such a positive response; success of the Residential Recycling Program depends on support and participation from residents.”
Children ages 3+ are encouraged to show their creativity and enter the Blue Cart Colouring Contest. The contest is open until April 20, 2018, and a winner in each category will receive a $100 gift card to the Big Marble Go Centre and a photo with the Mayor. Contest entries can be printed from the City’s website or picked up at City Hall.

Background: All single family residences and smaller multi-family residences (4plexes or less) which currently have a grey cart will receive a blue recycling cart. There is no opting out of the program. The net cost to residents upon implementation will be less than $6 per month and will be included on utility bills. The adjusted rates will go to Council for final approval in spring.
Blue recycling carts will be delivered late this spring and residents may begin using them immediately. No need for sorting, simply place all recyclables including cardboard, plastics, tin/aluminum, mixed paper and newsprint directly in the blue recycling cart. Please no glass or garbage. Glass may be deposited at one of the bulk recycling depots. Blue recycling cart collection will remain on the same day and in the same set out location as the grey and yard waste carts; ensure all carts are set out by 7am.
