Bulk Recycling Depots
There are three bulk recycling depots located throughout Medicine Hat. Residents and businesses that are not part of the Residential Recycling Program or those who have oversized recyclables can take their recyclable materials to one of the drop-off depots.

Where does this recycling go?
The recycling depot cannisters are collected by GFL Environmental Inc. and processed for shipping.
Paper may go to a de-inking facility. Plastic is marketed to a buyer who cleans it, makes it into pellets, and then sells the pellets to an end user who will use them to make everyday products.
