Work at the Construction and Demolition Facility

Quality One (under contract to the City of Edmonton at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre) works with people who have trouble getting and keeping jobs. We have created a supportive workplace where people feel respected as they:

  • learn what is expected of them as employees, 
  • develop skills, and 
  • gain financial stability through year-round employment.

Our staff separate residential waste and construction and demolition waste into different streams for further processing and removes materials that would create problems for down-stream processing. In doing so, we are an integral part of Edmonton's waste management system. 

Quality One operates from the Integrated Processing and Transfer Facility at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre, located at Site 480, 250 Aurum Road NE.
