Where do the beverage containers go when they leave the community?
• Local depots send beverage containers to regional processing centres in Inuvik, Yellowknife, and Hay River. • The processing center pays each depot a handling fee to cover operating costs and money to cover the refunds provided. • The processing centres also receive a handling fee to cover their operating costs. • Processing centres then process the beverage containers and ship them to southern markets for reuse or recycling.
