Reason for being Auctioned:
As of March 2, 2024 the Regional Municipality of Waterloo (Region) transferred the management of the residential blue box program to Circular Materials. This was done as part of the provincial framework where producers are fully responsible for the end-of-life of blue box materials. The Material Recycling Centre (MRC) located at the Waterloo Landfill Site (925 Erb Street West, Waterloo, ON N2J 3Z4) is now being utilized as a transfer station. As such, the Region is looking to complete the sale of the recycling processing equipment as it is no longer required for operation.
