No. Our recycler does not accept Tetrapaks at this time. Tetrapaks are a mixture of paper, aluminum lining and plastic, and require a special recycling process of their own. Tetrapak containers can be returned to any Encorp Return-It depot in BC to get your deposit back (between 5 and 20 cents per container!). Otherwise, please place all Tetrapak containers into the garbage bin.
