How is Valley Pro different with composting?
Valley Pro takes care of Kelowna’s commercial composting needs. We keep recyclable and compostable materials from grocery stores, restaurants, and more out of landfills, making a positive impact on the environment. Valley Pro also prides itself in donating food to local food banks.
Residential Composting Collection
In 2023, Valley Pro Recycling took over LC Compost to begin offering residential composting collection services to Kelowna, West Kelowna and Lake Country.
