Recycling Tips
Keep soft plastics out of the recycling (yellow) bin. Soft plastics can be taken back to Coles/Woolworths for recycling through RedCycle. Polystyrene is not accepted in the recycling (yellow) bin. Please place in red bin or take to Monash Waste Transfer station (Notting Hill) for recycling. Coffee cups are not accepted in the recycling (yellow) bin. Please place in landfill (red) bin or take to the nearest Simply Cups recycling service (participating 7-Eleven stores)
Please fill your bin as close to collection day as possible to avoid contents "sweating" & jamming in the bin.
