To ensure safe physical distancing, the following restrictions are in place:

  • Only 10 customers permitted in Recycling Centres at a time.
  • We accept credit or debit cards only; cash is prohibited at this time.
  • CVRD Free Stores are closed to the public.

 We are asking Cowichan residents to make some changes too:  

  • Please DO NOT visit CVRD Recycling Centres unless absolutely necessary.
  • Line ups at CVRD Recycling Centres could be potentially dangerous to your health and safety as well as the health and safety of CVRD staff.
  • Please consider storing yard waste at home until the provincial state of emergency has been lifted.

 Please note these restrictions/requests are not forever. They are for the time being. Let’s all do out part and help flatten the curve.
