Recycling Tips
Please leave all lids on jars & bottles. Reduce waste by choosing products that are reusable, recycled, repairable, refillable and recyclable. All recycling should be free of food, but it doesn't need to be rinsed out. Only put your recycling bin out for collection when it is full. Remember: Squeeze it! Squash it! Flatten it! to maximise space in your recycling bin. http://www.darebin.vic.gov.au/Darebin-Living/RubbishRecyclingandCleaning/Recycling

Additional Info
Use a kitchen container when you are preparing food or cleaning out the fridge. Any old container will do, we encourage residents to upcycle old yoghurt tubs or food storage containers. Put your food waste straight into the kitchen container. If you would like to line your container, use a sheet of paper towel or newspaper. Do not use plastic bags (even if they are compostable) to line your container. Empty the contents of your kitchen container straight into your food and green waste bin. Layering food waste between your garden clippings works best.
