The rigid scrap recycling program is a service for collection of waste plastic scrap.
After the initial setup on the rigid scrap program, Westcoast Plastic Recycling will drop off storage bins that fit your particular recycling need. Any rigid scrap generated is put into one of Westcoast's storage solution totes and trucked away from going to the landfill into the proper recycling channel. |

Most of the rigid scrap(s) that Westcoast Plastic Recycling recovers are from code numbers 1-7. (See Below) |
