Starting January 1, 2026, Ontario will transition to an enhanced recycling system.

City of Pembroke residents will have expanded recycling options starting January 1, 2026, as part of Ontario's Enhanced Recycling System. 

At this time, there will be no changes to your collection schedule.

Further details will be provided in the coming weeks via Circular Materials who is the new administrator of Ontario’s common collection system. They are a national not-for-profit organization building efficient and effective recycling systems where materials are collected, recycled, and returned to producers to use as recycled content in new packaging and products.

As the new administrator, Circular Materials will be the new point of contact for any concerns or questions regarding the new recycling program. They can be reached by:
