FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Beer Store Deposit Return to Resume April 6

TORONTO (APRIL 1, 2020) – The Beer Store will begin to accept empties at select retail locations as of April
6th.

To facilitate an orderly restoration of the recycling program, we have temporarily reduced the number of stores
accepting empties. This will allow our retail operations to ensure we have substantial quantities of personal
protective equipment (PPE) along with safeguarding the operational maintenance of social distancing with
increased store traffic.

That’s why returns will begin at 71 stores initially. These locations will modify hours to 10am-4pm Monday
through Saturday, and regular operating hours on Sunday. Those stores include:

We will continue to work with our customers to help them understand directional information found when they
arrive onsite, practice social distancing, and have minimized empty returns to one cart per person. It is also
recommended to visit at off peak times as transactions may take longer than normal once we resume the
program.

In addition, every Sunday, beginning April 5th, select Beer Store Distribution Centres will accept empty container
returns from 9am – 3pm. These sites will be set up as a drive-thru system enabling continuous flow of traffic.
Note, no bottle drive returns will be accepted on this date. Distribution Centres include:
• Brampton (69 First Gulf Blvd, Brampton, L6W 4T8)
• London (280 Sovereign Rd., London, N6M 1B3)
• Ottawa (2750 Swansea Cres, Ottawa, K1G 6R8)
• Stoney Creek (414 Dewitt Rd, Stoney Creek, L8E 4B7)
• Sudbury (50 Vagnini Crt, Sudbury, P3Y 1K8)
• Thunder Bay (490 Maureen St. Unit #500, Thunder Bay, P7B 6T2)
• Whitby (1655 Tricont Ave, Whitby, L1N 7N5)

As we continue to restore recycling operations, please visit the www.thebeerstore.ca to see updates as they
become available. We’d like to thank all our customers for their patience at this extraordinary time.
