Save time by skipping a trip to the bottle depot and support health care in your community! When you donate your recyclable return through Skip the Depot to Covenant Foundation, you’ll do something good for Covenant patients, residents, staff and families and you’ll get a tax receipt.
Heading to the bottle depot can be messy and eat up a good chunk of your day. Skip the Depot lets you ditch the dirty work and give back to your community, making it easy for you to support patients, residents, their families and healthcare staff at 22 Covenant facilities across Alberta.
It’s as easy as 1-2-3!
Register an account: Registering with Skip the Depot only takes a few seconds! You can use the Skip the Depot website or download the SkipTheDepot app from the App Store or Google Play.
Schedule your pickup: Skip the Depot handles the pickup from your location of choice (home or office). Enter your address, date, and expected number of bags for your pickup.
Donate and get a tax receipt: Designate the money from your recyclables to Covenant Foundation and we'll issue you a tax receipt. Your support helps us invest in the greatest needs at Covenant hospitals and facilities, including leading-edge programs and services, research and education, and state-of-the-art equipment.
Once you’ve booked your pickup, simply place your bags outside on your scheduled day, sit back and relax! A Skip the Depot driver will be dispatched, collect the bags, and credit your account so you can see what was counted and donated to Covenant Foundation. We will then issue you a tax receipt.
