2025 Spring Bottle Drive

Need to clear out some space in your cupboard, garage, or shed? Have bottles, cans, or other refundables just waiting to go to the depot?

It's time for our spring bottle drive, running from May 3rd to 10th. During this time, you can donate your refundable recyclables to the Bow Valley SPCA and help dogs and cats in need!

There are two donation options:

1) Residential Pick-Up:
Schedule a pick-up at your home address and skip the lines at the bottle depots! Pick-up dates are Saturday May 3rd or Saturday May 10th only. Click HERE to register.

2) Bottle Depot Drop-off:
Bring your refundables to the Banff or Canmore Bottle Depots directly, and let the staff know to you'd like to donate your return funds to the Bow Valley SPCA account.

Please note that we are NOT accepting drop-offs at the Adoption Centre. Please do not leave bags at our property or outside the gate. Our dogs get very excited at the prospect of packages, and will get into any boxes or bags that are left, which is a hazard to them. Help keep our dogs safe by scheduling a pick-up or taking your bottles to the depot directly.

If you are a business and interested in contributing to our bottle drive, please contact the Adoption Centre directly to schedule a pick-up.

If you have any questions or concerns, email events@bowvalleyspca.org.
