Before any burning takes place, the first step should be to seek out opportunities for debris utilization or alternative disposal methods. The Recycling Council of BC has put together an inventory of businesses and facilities in every regional district that accept household and business vegetative debris. Please contact us with any updates to this inventory.
For best results, print on legal-sized paper: 8.5" by 14" / 21.59 cm by 35.56 cm.
