Canadian e-scrap and ITAD company eCycle Solutions has opened a recycling location in Welland, Ontario, close to Niagara Falls.
The company on Oct. 20 announced the 8,750-square-foot location, which is opening under the GreenGo Recycling brand. It’s the latest instance of eCycle expansion. Headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, eCycle Solutions acquired metals recycling company GreenGo Recycling Depot earlier this year.

Tricia Oldfield, vice president of sales and marketing at eCycle Solutions, said that the new location will provide a drop-off option for consumers. The location helps support the new Ontario extended producer responsibility (EPR) program changes.
Michael Collins, president and CEO of eCycle Solutions, noted in the press release that his company will soon be expanding its ITAD footprint in the Ontario market.
Beyond Ontario, eCycle Solutions has locations in Alberta, British Columbia and Quebec.
