Local dignitaries and citizens of Weyburn celebrated the grand opening of the brand new Sarcan facility with a ribbon cutting 小蓝视频 on November.
The 小蓝视频 was hosted by the Mistress of Ceremonies and Executive Director of the Weyburn Wor-Kin Shop, Andria Brady. Speeches were given by Dustin Duncan, The Minister of Health/小蓝视频 for Weyburn-Big Muddy, City Councillor Mel Van Betuw and Amy McNeil, the Executive Director of Sarcan Recycling.
The new building, which is located at 1800 Ebel Road, will benefit both the customers and the employees. Additional space in the building allows for a larger customer service area, a roomier back staff area, and more customer parking. The depot is much cleaner and brighter than the previous one. It is also equipped with a new air exchange system, which will aid in the uncomfortable smell often associated with recycling centres.
The original Sarcan depot was one of 32 to open in the province in June of 1988. Since that time, the Weyburn depot has recycled a staggering 134,543,283 containers. Since its inception in 1988, Sarcan has always and will continue to employ people of all abilities. Beyond the community employment, Sarcan benefits the community by drastically reducing the amount of waste that is taken to the local landfill. The new depot, which is over double the size of the previous building, measuring in at 11,000 sq. ft., will make it easier for customers and employees alike to meet the recycling needs of the ever-growing city of Weyburn.
After the speeches and official ribbon cutting 小蓝视频, refreshments and cake were enjoyed by all who attended. Tours of the new depot were given to customers who were interested in viewing the new facility.
