Collectors Role

A collector is a business registered with UOMA NB to pick up products governed by the Regulation from generators or collection facilities and deliver them to registered UOMA NB processors.
At the heart of UOMA NB’s program we find incentives (Return Incentives or RIs) to collectors, according to the different zones in the province of New Brunswick. The financing of these subsidies comes from the (Environmental Handling Charges) EHCs paid by members on their sales occured in New Brunswick of the products covered by the Regulation.

Register as a collector

What documentation do I need in order to register as a UOMA NB collector?
It is important to read through the collectors and processors manual to fully understand the program.
To register as a UOMA NB collector, you must send the following items to UOMA NB:
a) the collector registration form and all the documents outlined therein
b) the collectors Agreement, signed, dated and initialized on every page
c) a check for $ 200 plus all applicable taxes
UOMA NB will examine the information received and will schedule an appointment with the registrant. Following the meeting, if all is in order, the registrant will be presented with a registration certificate along with a copy of their collectors agreement signed by UOMA NB. All collectors registered with UOMA NB appear on the website with the products that they collect and their zones of activity.
IT IS IMPERATIVE that you read the supplemental information sent to all collectors in compliance with the collectors agreement. You will find this information in the Communiqués section of this website under “Collectors”.
What documentation do I need to complete in order to register with UOMA NB as an internal collector-processor?
In the case of a registration for an internal collector-processor, UOMA NB requires all of the documents required for a collector registration AND all of the documents required for a processor registration.
UOMA NB will examine the documents and if all is in order, UOMA NB will forward the registration certificate to the registrant along with a copy of the agreements (collectors and processors) signed by UOMA NB.
Internal collector-processors do not appear on UOMA NB’s website.
