Paper Pickup and Recycling
Island Junk Solutions collects residential and commercial paper waste for proper recycling
Clear Out Stacks of Paper Without the Hassle
Old files, newspapers, and unwanted mail can take over desks, closets, or storage rooms. Island Junk Solutions offers paper recycling pickup so you can get it out of your space and into the proper recycling stream. Whether you’re purging an office, downsizing your home, or cleaning out after a move, we’ll load and transport your paper to approved facilities in the Capital Regional District (CRD) or Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN).
How to Prepare for Paper Pickup and Recycling
We collect newspapers, office paper, magazines, envelopes, paper bags, and even shredded paper when it’s securely bagged. To help ensure smooth recycling, paper should be free from food residue, plastic coatings, or hazardous materials. If your load includes non-recyclable paper, we can separate it on-site so the right materials go to the right place.
In the CRD and RDN, paper is recycled through depots and transfer stations, not in the garbage stream. Businesses with high volumes of paper may benefit from direct delivery to large-scale processing facilities, which we can arrange for you.
