Bear Issues
Carney's
Waste Systems has been named Bear Smart Business of the decade by the
Whistler Bear Society for their continued efforts to bear-proof waste
containment in the Sea to Sky corridor. Our efforts have been noted
as commendable because of the many bear lives that have been saved as
a result of our initiatives.

As our
corridor develops and natural bear habitat are populated and
developed, human/bear conflicts have increases. Carney's Waste
Systems has tried to minimize those conflicts by designing and using
high quality bear bins in bear hotspots.
Additionally, with regards to the bears we:
Work
diligently with both municipal and regional governments to provide
effective bear solutions
Stay
informed
Keep our
customers educated
Assist the
conservation officer & liaise frequently
Track and
report incidents

To do your
part to minimize human/bear conflict please ensure that all waste is
put completely into receptacles where provided. Have all of your
waste bins serviced on a regular basis. Use bear bins or enclosures
where necessary and store food items indoors.
If you have
any questions regarding bear issues please consider us as a resource.
