Residents in Coquitlam and Anmore can put their empties out on the curb again.

This week, Recycle BC will resume picking up glass bottles and jars from homes with municipal collection.

This follows a three-week pause after rains flooded out roads in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

Recycle BC is asking residents not to overfill their grey boxes with surplus glass materials.

Recycle BC depots have also temporarily stopped collecting glass bottles and jars, as well as foam packaging.

For more details, visit recyclebc.ca or call 778-588-9504.
