Retire Your Ride

Retire Your Ride was an initiative of the Government of Alberta that rewarded vehicle owners for getting their high-polluting cars off the road and recycling them responsibly through the program. Over its three year run, Retire Your Ride recycled more than 120,000 vehicles nationally, more than 12,000 of which were in Alberta.

Vehicles from 1995 and earlier produce 19 times more smog-forming pollutants than those made since 2004. By retiring those vehicles we can help reduce harmful emissions.
