About The Bottle Depot

• All of the depots on this page are part of Adanac Recovery Ltd, the largest beverage container recycler on Vancouver Island. We operate as part of the BC Bottle Depot Association in association with Encorp Pacific Inc.
• Our first depot opened March 10, 1995 with one employee, and since then we've expanded to four depots with over 40 employees.
• We support many community fund raisers and have provided financial support to various sports teams and organizations. We have contributed to Santa's Anonymous for over five years and have helped The Land Conservancy. We also support the Women's James Bay Rugby Club and the Peninsula Panthers Hockey Club. And for the past five years we have helped students at Camosun College with an annual bursary.
• We are locally owned and operated and are proud that our depots are having a profoundly positive impact on landfill sites.
• Last year our depots collected over 30,000 cubic meters of material. That's enough to cover the ice surface of the new Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre 7 stories (70 feet) high! That's a lot of room saved at the landfill!
