Aye. And the recovery % left a lot to be desired. So it has been changed:

Yes. The Blue Bin Program has not changed. You can continue to put all of your glass bottles, bag-in-box, Tetra Pak containers, plastic bottles, and aluminum and steel containers in your blue bin and they will be recycled. However, you will forfeit the deposit (10 or 20 cents depending on the size of container) that you paid at the time of purchase.
