The purpose of pop-up depots is to make recycling more accessible, connect with residents, increase recycling awareness and keep recyclable material out of the landfill. Residents in Peachland typically travel to the nearest depots in West Kelowna or Kelowna to properly recycle their depot-only items.“Over 150 Peachland residents attended the recycle depot pop-up on April 16, says Rae Stewart, RDCO waste reduction facilitator. “Feedback on the pop-up depots has been incredibly positive and residents are happy to have recycling options right in their own communities.” Pop-up recycling depots are held at the Peachland Community Centre parking lot on 6th Street. Staff will be on hand from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. to assist and answer recycling questions.
