Why Sage Hill
Not your typical bottle depot.
Most depots make you do all the work. We built Sage Hill around a different idea — every person who walks through our doors deserves to be looked after.
No heavy lifting. Ever.
From the moment you walk in, a team member takes your bags and boxes off your hands. Bring as many bags as you want — we carry it all inside for you.
Your own team member. Your own count.
We assign a dedicated staff member to you personally. They count every single container, sort as they go, and hand you a printed receipt with the exact total.
Receipt to ATM. Walk out with cash.
Take your printed receipt straight to our in-depot cash ATM and collect your refund immediately. No app to download. No e-Transfer to wait on.
Best in Alberta. Three times.
We've won the Trevor Nickel Service Excellence Award — presented by the Alberta Bottle Depot Association — for exceptional staff, cleanliness, and value for your time.
