Use the signs below to help you sort your waste. These signs are great for your office, rental property or event. They may be printed from this page or you may order more from Divert Nova Scotia. Post them above your waste bins at eye levell. TIP: Clustering signed bins for each waste stream together makes it more convenient for sorting.
Outfit your office with bins for recyclables, paper and garbage in the main work area. Put an organics mini bin in your lunch room for food waste. Put paper bins beside photocopiers. TIPS: Reuse paper for scribbling notes. Confidential papers may be shredded and placed in a clear bag or shopping bag for collection. Plastic windows and staples do not have to be removed from envelopes and papers before placing them for collection.
The Outreach & Education department can help you develop signs which display specific wastes generated by your business or make recommendations about where to set up sorting bins. Call (902) 543-2913 to set up an appointment today.
Paper coffee cups and paper cold drink cups now go in the garbage.
