Cochrane Eco Centre

Extremely helpful to have this in Cochrane. The gentleman helping me with my chemicals today was knowledgeable and professional. Thanks for the service!

I initially was very displeased with the service and staff of this location. However through recent trips it seems they have rotated staff and the new people are much more friendly and helpful. A very positive turnaround, still wish they were better about the pay and throw garbage.

If you ask for assistance (where to put styrofoam for example) the attendants demand to see your driver's license. Every time we have been there, the attendants follow and reprimand us. Last time for having a pop can in the metal recycling, previously for putting a cereal box in the mixed cardboard.

It it is my firm belief that they are trying to be as miserable as possible so that we will throw all recycling in the garbage. After all, we pay for garbage but not for recycling.

We hate going here, and prepare ourselves to be hassled every time we enter.

Drive in and drop off anything recyclable in its correct spot. They have all the regular recycling, as well as batteries, electronics, oil, propane cylinders, styrofoam and appliances. Open to all residents of Rockyview County. Clean and organized.

Love this place - you can save a lot of landfill material and bring it here instead.

Staff is super friendly & helpful.

Thanks Town of Cochrane for our friendly Eco Centre!

They say 40L used oil per household per week. Showed up with about 30L of antifreeze from flushing 1 car and a few jugs of used oil, was told I had an industrial amount and cant drop off more then 5 of the 1 gallon (3.78L) jugs of antifreeze, only 19L and no oil. What a joke.
