Saskatchewan Beverage
Manufacturer/Distributor Information
ALL DESIGNATED BEVERAGE CONTAINERS SOLD IN SASKATCHEWAN MUST BE REGISTERED!
Pursuant toThe
Litter Control Act, designated beverages that
are packaged in designated containers must be approved by the Minister of Environment
prior to being distributed in Saskatchewan. Manufacturers and distributors
of beverages into the province are responsible for obtaining approvals for
their containers and for ensuring that they remit the appropriate environmental
handling charges and deposits for each container that they distributed.
Once a manufacturer’s or distributor’s application form has been processed, Saskatchewan Finance will be advised to issue them a license and to provide them with a remittance/return form. In addition, SARCAN Recycling will be apprised that the containers can now be accepted at their depots and that the associated deposits can be refunded to the public.
