Reclaim
Reclaim Plastics exists to help businesses become sustainability leaders in their field with our customized recycling solutions.
We divert waste from landfills by turning plastic waste generated by businesses (i.e. post-industrial plastics) into new products in a sustainable and environmentally conscious manner. We’re always looking to tackle new recycling challenges.
As an industrial plastics recycling facility, we offer convenient, reliable, and affordable pick-up services spanning across B.C.
We not only process your material, but also work with our partners to create entirely new products with the recycled input – such as plastic piping, landscape edging, commercial containers, or even new car parts. We believe finding circular solutions will lead to a more sustainable planet.

Recognizing our work in developing sustainable recycling solutions for plastic auto parts, such as automotive bumper covers, headlights, and trim parts, Reclaim Plastics was a recipient of the 2021 CleanBC Plastics Action Fund. This has allowed us to develop solutions for various difficult-to-recycle automotive and industrial plastics.
As the recipient of the City of Burnaby’s 2021 Environmental Awards under the category of Business Stewardship, we are committed to providing local, sustainable recycling services to companies across B.C., to better our environment and our green economy.
We proudly support and stand with other organizations that champion moving towards a more sustainable future.
Auto parts and bodies have been classified under Banned Hazardous and Operational Impact Materials under Metro Vancouver’s Tipping Fee Bylaw and Disposal Ban Program for a number of years. These bans are enforced and Metro Vancouver and City of Vancouver disposal facilities.
We’re proud that our city has taken the next step in banning automotive plastics from landfills, allowing these plastics to be recycled back into the community. We are always looking to partner with businesses, organizations, and municipalities across the province to ensure a more sustainable B.C.
“Auto bodies and parts such as bumpers can be recycled. It is important to separate these materials from garbage.”
