I'll admit I don't hit up bottle depots often, so I don't have a whole lot to compare with, but we…read moreused to go to this depot when I was a kid so there's a sort of nostalgia attached to it. They've still got shopping carts for you to bring in your bottles with, the same spinning metal cylinders on the conveyer belt and the red bins that you put the cans and bottles in. And the old-school till that they ring items through on. A few things have changed - it seemed busier when I was younger, whereas at 10am on Saturday morning we had no problem getting in & out in less than 20 minutes. Not sure if that's because more people forgo the deposit and put their bottles in the blue bins, or because there's another depot just north of this one on Horton Rd. They also sort for you now, whereas in the past they didn't. I'm a little weary of that because I'm convinced they take a cut of what you bring in, but I didn't bother counting what we were due so I can't say it for sure. It won't stop me from coming again.

I was in with three large garbage bags of cans/bottles. I was given a refund for only 86 items…read more One of these bags easily held more than that. If you use this depot, be sure to know how many items you are taking in. I won't be returning to this place. Not sure if it was dishonesty, or machine malfunction. Not acceptable in either case, and the attendant must have realized there were many more items than 86.

The staff are amazing here and eager to assist with the bottles and bags full of recyclable items…read more Jay has assisted me the last two times. Very well mannered, professional and friendly. Tha k you Chinook Bottle Depot. Take care. /Nancy (Nancy L. Erickson)

I saw the great reviews here for Chinook Bottle Depot and thought I'd check them out. The first thing I noticed is how quiet the machines were-no yelling to talk to the attendant. She gave me the exact amount for my bottles! And no line-ups! The second time I went, a man working there came out, brought a cart to my car, and helped me fill it up w/ my bottles. I've NEVER had this happen at any other depot. They have earned my patronage, and I will be driving the extra km to come here! Very impressed :)

I've been going to this new bottle depot at Easthills since it opened. It is by far the best bottle…read moredepot there is in Calgary. Every time I pull up there is someone that comes out with a cart to help me load my bottles and take it inside to a sorter. Inside is spacious and clean no sticky floors from leaky bags being brought in, they are always moping the floors to keep the clean. They also added some chairs and sofa for people to sit on. The staff are friendly and helpful. The refund system is all automated so once you get your receipt you take it to the cash dispenser and get your refund. They also have a couple of wash station so you can wash/dry your hands. They also have a coffee station where you can grab a coffee if you like. Overall it's a great depot to go to

I organized 2 bottle-drove events for 2 different Blackfoot hockey teams this season (Fall 2012)…read more I have to say that I was 100% satisfied and extremely impressed with the services Marklan Bottle Depot provided. The most valuable service being their ability to PICK-UP the bottles from the bottle-drive meeting site. Or, in the case of our "reverse" bottle-drive for our Timbit team, we had Marklan Bottle Depot meet us at one of the arenas 30 minutes prior to practice, and had everyone from the team bring in their collected bottles and deposit them into Marklan's large truck. Doesn't get any quicker/easier than that! Immy (owner) is extremely personable, friendly, reliable and always available via cell-phone. In our particular experience, service went above and beyond expectations in that the owner personally delivered our team cheque after the event, given that we live in neighboring communities. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this business to anyone... you won't be disappointed! 5 star rating. :-)

This once in the middle of nowhere landfill is now right in the NW burbs…read more If you're looking to dump a pickup truck full of residential garbage, spyhill is quick and easy. They've got residential dumping as soon as you go in with plenty of dumpsters that you can back your truck up to and leave your trash. The dumpsters are set lower than than the truck pad so if you have something heavy, it's easy to push it out of the truck and into the dumpster without lifting. The residential Dumping area is clean and paved which helps against annoying flat tires when you go to the dump. The lowest rate is $20 and I'm yet to go over that limit with a pickup. To compare, the amount I took back today, 1-800-Got-Junk wanted $289 to take it to the dump. The staff were friendly and efficient. I was in and out in no more than 10 minutes. I just saved myself $269!
