MMBC must achieve
75% recovery which
supports the City’s
GCAP Zero Waste
goals (achieved 80%
in 2014).
MMBC must recycle
85-90% of recovered
packaging (achieved
93% in 2014).

The City and MMBC
are aligned in
ensuring the

successful and
Vancouver residents
are provided with
ongoing high quality
recycling services.

CONCLUSION
Faced with fleet
investments, rising
program costs and
increased demand in
high priority areas,
the most prudent
approach for the City
is to end its contract
with MMBC and turn
over recycling
services to MMBC.
