RRFB

Waste separation containers are an important component of a successful waste diversion program at your home, school or office. RRFB Nova Scotia maintains this section of our website to help organizations and individuals find waste separation containers suitable to their needs.

Waste Separation Container Guidelines

Whether you're building or buying new containers for your home, school or office, be sure to follow the design guidelines provided in this section.

Buy a Bin

Looking to buy one or more waste separation containers for your home, office or organization? There are many styles and options to choose from, including many that are made in Nova Scotia. This section provides a number of pictures of indoor and outdoor multi-unit containers that are well designed to help ensure proper source separation.

Bin Signage

Remember to clearly mark your sorting stations and use graphics to show waste types common to each bin. A picture is worth a thousand words, and waste containers that are clearly marked are more likely to result in proper waste sorting. RRFB Nova Scotia provides free source separation decals to businesses and organizations across the province.
