The Government of Saskatchewan announced in it's recent budget that the recycling program at SARCAN will be accepting milk cartons in the same deposit-refund model as other beverages.

That includes the SARCAN Depot in Shaunavon.

Effective April 1st, a total of 72 SARCAN Depots in the province began accepting beverage containers for milk, buttermilk, cream, fluid coffee creamers, lactose-free milk products and drinkable yogurt for refund of a paid deposit.

In the interest of ensuring deposits have been paid, only containers with best before dates after April first will be refunded by SARCAN.
