Penner Waste

Pizza boxes can’t be recycled because the grease can’t be removed from the cardboard fibres, which contaminates the final recycled product. This can also gunk up the works and damage equipment.

Today is World Wetlands Day! Did you know wetlands a disappearing 3x faster then forests!

Penner waste will be closed today due to weather and road conditions sorry for the inconvenience we will get everything taken care of as soon as it is safe to do so thanks for your understanding

PLEASE READ! When you see our curb side crew picking up garbage and compost, please drive slow! As they have almost been hit by vehicles multiple times.

Call (204) 331-4285 If you’re thinking about getting a recycling bin, or are interested in learning more about our processes.

Don’t forget to do this tonight!

Due to a Manitoba Hydro arranged Power outage on Thursday, our winkler location will be closed on Thursday, call (204) 331-4285 if you have any questions.

Why bees are essential to life on Earth? And what can we do to save them? . Big parts of our ecosystem and biodiversity depend on bees. The bees need the flower...s for food, and the flowers need the bees to reproduce. . Bees are the most important pollinators. They help plants to grow, breed and produce food by transferring pollen. . Most fruits, vegetables, nuts and plants like sunflowers, cocoa beans, coffee and tea, as well as cotton need bees to increase their yield and quality. . Bees are also key to maintain biodiversity by pollinating plants that grow seeds, fruits and berries that will be eaten by other animals, and maintain the food chain. . Unfortunately, bees population is a strong decline. . This is due to climate change, pesticides and habitat loss. This will put at risk the balance in our ecosystem, and could trigger food shortages. . What can we do to help the bees . 1 Don’t use chemicals and pesticides to treat your garden. 2 Keep a small basin of fresh water outside your home because the bees are thirsty. 3 Buy local, organic food. Organic food fields contain less pesticides and toxic chemicals. 4Remember: bees are not here to sting you! Just let them do their job .
