Municipalities in the Ottawa Valley are trying to find places for their recycling after the abrupt closure of the Beaumen Waste Management Systems plant last month.

• Recycling plant's closure leaves Ottawa Valley towns scrambling
• Recycling programs in Ontario heading for slow overhaul

The municipalities of Renfrew, Arnprior and McNab/Braeside were considering a deal with a waste-management company based in Carleton Place.

Topps Environmental Solutions has offered to pick up roadside recycling for six months, with the option of extending the contract on a month-by-month basis while municipalities look at a possible longer term fix and prepare for regulation changes coming form the province.
