Recycling and Solid Waste Management – Report 2025: Working Together to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

2026 Focus Areas The City will continue to support the transition to a circular economy by exploring new strategies and implementing new initiatives through sustainable waste management practices. Key focus areas in 2026 will include: Operate a City Bike Reuse program to take bikes in good condition that are dropped off at the Richmond Recycling Depot and provide them to eligible organizations, which will repair and refurbish bikes that will then be donated for reuse in the community. - Review the Business Recycling Resources pilot program and establish future approaches. Add designated dog waste collection bins at the 13 remaining City off-leash dog areas and some trails in Richmond and implement a communications campaign to educate dog owners on proper disposal of dog waste. Test options for reusable containers at the Cherry Blossom Festival and Farm Fest to determine feasibility of integrating reusable containers as part of City events. Continue to pursue increased community engagement initiatives to help residents and businesses recycle con-ectly, reduce contamination, promote waste reduction behaviours, and actively support the transition to a circular economy.
