Flat Fee Reports
The Recycle BC, MMSW and MMSM programs offer flat fee reporting for organizations supplying low volumes of designated packaging and paper product. Flat fee reporting options vary by program - see the links below for details.
Eligible organizations can choose to pay a flat fee rather than submit a detailed annual report of material types and quantities, and then be invoiced in accordance with the respective program’s annual fee schedule.
- Recycle BC - low volume and flat fee reporting
- MMSW - low volume reporting
- MMSM - flat fee reporting
A reminder that before filing a report for a given period, you will need to Confirm your Obligation and your eligibility to pay a flat fee. The steps below outline how to file a flat fee report on the WeRecycle Portal. Contact Customer Relations at info@circularmaterials.ca or 1 (888) 980-9549 with any questions.
