Presentation on empty recycling at the Beer Store

2. The Beer Store (TBS) is the exclusive service provider for
collection of all empty wine, beer and spirit containers.
Where do I take my empties?

3. What items does TBS accept?
Beer Store purchases
Any container purchased at
TBS and it’s packaging can be
returned to TBS for recycling.
LCBO purchases
Any container purchased at the
LCBO and it’s packaging can be
returned to TBS for recycling.

4. Why should I bother?
Bringing your empty containers back to
the Beer Store benefits both you and the
environment in many ways.

6. It may be surprising to learn that each year, 80 million
alcohol bottles, cans and containers end up in Ontario
landfills. The Ontario Deposit Return program helps
preserve valuable greenspace by diverting these items to a
recycling facility where they can be used to create new
products like new glass bottles and fibreglass insulation.
The program also frees up room in your Blue Box so
Ontarians can maximize the amount of items recovered,
recycled and put to environmentally safe use.

7. Okay, how can I help?
We appreciate that you return your
empties!
We want to help you do this quickly and
efficiently…
