RECYCLE
Any household recycling materials that you drop off to us (glass, plastic, cans, cardboard and paper) will be hand-sorted to make sure it is a clean stream of recycling.
As we are not funded by the council to recycle, there is a small charge when you drop off household recycling to cover costs – just $1 per 60 litre crate (the normal recycling bin size).
