Beverage product distributors must report the sales of all deposit-bearing beverage products in the province and remit the deposits paid by their customers to purchase these beverages directly to their distributor agent responsible for recycling the beverage containers post-consumer.
Distributors who are represented by Encorp can use the forms provided below to do so depending on the type of product sold. Containers for non-alcohol and alcohol beverage products are reported separately using different forms.
