Until the Government of Yukon's EPR Program is up and running in 2025, the City of Whitehorse has created a temporary recycling program to ensure residents and small businesses have the opportunity to recycle their non-refundable items. You can see the latest announcement from the City of Whitehorse here. Learn more about the updated sorting requirements here.
In a recent letter from the City of Whitehorse, the Whitehorse Chamber of Commerce received confirmation, that inline with the definition of small businesses outlined in EPR, "the City of Whitehorse confirms that we will accommodate the use of the Waste Management Facility's Recycling Depot from small businesses that fit this criterion. These businesses will be treated equivalently to residential premises in terms of material generation and handling."
