About

When you join the Recycling Club you help your community recycling depot, you help keep your community litter free and you earn some great prizes!

The Recycling Club is sponsored by Yukon Government Community Services, the Recycling Fund and participating businesses. Raven Recycling is responsible for administering points and prizes on behalf of the Club and other Yukon recycling depots.

Members must register each year and points cannot be carried over from year to year. Any points unused by the cutoff date are lost

Being a Club Member:

  • Once registered, you earn points by returning refundable beverage containers to your local depot. The depot cashier will give you your refund plus one point for every penny’s worth of the refund. For example, an aluminum can with a 5¢ refund is worth 5 points. Points can only be awarded on refundable beverage containers. Show your Recycling Club Membership Card or simply give the cashier your membership number and ask for your point voucher.

  • Save all your point vouchers in a safe place so you can keep track of your points. Points are not carried over from year to year!

  • Look through the prize catalogue and see how many points you need for the prize(s) of your choice and order online from the Check/Redeem Points page.

  • You cannot collect points without a membership number. If you were a club member last year, you will need a new membership number this year.

  • If you live in a community without a recycling depot you will have to find a way to get containers to a participating recycling depot. (See #2 under Rules for Collecting Points)

The 2% Club are members who are in the top 2% of all point earners for the year.

Remember that you are only able to redeem up to 200,000 points for the catalogue prizes, but you can keep earning points for a chance to be in the 2% Club and have a chance to win some fantastic grand prizes!

  4. You can’t transfer points to another membership number.

  5. Points are redeemable up to 200,000 points, but you can continue to collect points for the chance to win a grand prize (group memberships not eligible for grand prize draws).

  6. Points must be earned! Please don’t ask other depot customers for theirs.

  7. If you break the rules of the Recycling Club, you may lose your membership and forfeit any points earned.
