Privacy Policy and Social Media Guidelines

The goal of our social media pages are to educate residents in the 9 member municipalities serviced by Quinte Waste Solutions on our blue box recycling program and our household hazardous waste program. The nine-member municipalities are as follows: Belleville, Quinte West, Prince Edward County, Marmora & Lake, Madoc Township, Centre Hastings, Stirling-Rawdon, Tweed, and Tyendinaga Township. We strive to ensure that recycling and hazardous waste practices are understood with accessible information available on each one of our social media accounts. Upcoming events, recycling changes, schedule delays, or cancellations will be published on our website and through social media accounts in a timely manner to ensure that residents are able to access up to date relevant and accurate information. Comments involving insults towards employees of Quinte Waste Solutions will be deleted. Inappropriate and offensive language towards Quinte Waste Solutions or other residents commenting on the Quinte Waste Solutions’ social media pages will be deleted. Those who continuously write slandering remarks, insults, or inappropriate content will be blocked from our social media accounts in order to ensure that these platforms are positive and friendly in nature. We believe our social media pages are an education tool to best ensure that residents have the necessary information they need in order to work with us to recycle material and properly dispose of hazardous and electronic waste. Our goal is to provide a platform that allows for education and information to be received by residents. Appropriate comments, questions, and clarifications regarding the blue box and household hazardous waste programs are encouraged to ensure that communication between Quinte Waste Solutions and residents in our service area continues to be clear, positive, and accurate.
