  1. Recycling 101: How to get Started

  2. Are you daunted by recycling? We’ll be honest, the push for recycling has become bigger over the last couple of years. However, we promise the process isn’t complicated. This is your approachable guide to recycling. The dos, don’ts and how you can get started today.

  3. What Can You Recycle In WA, you will typically have access to three bins - red waste, yellow recycle and green garden waste. Not every suburb has immediate access to the green bin, however, it is something you can request from your local council.

  4. What Can You Recycle So, what can you recycle in your yellow-top bin? • Containers • Paper • Cardboard • Aluminum • Glass bottles • Cartons • Aerosol cans • Steel • Cans

  5. What Can You Recycle Are there any exceptions? Generally, food waste on your recyclable items is a big no-no. For example, a pizza box with melted cheese all over it cannot be recycled. Another example is an unrinsed tin food can such as beans or tomato. While the cardboard box is a little harder to clean, food tins can be simply rinsed and then placed in the yellow-top bin.

  6. What You CAN’T Recycle OK so, we hope you’ve got a handle on what you can recycle. But what can’t you recycle? • Plastic bags • Nappies • Light bulbs • Glass shards • Polystyrene • Drinking glasses • Crockery • Soft plastics

  7. What You CAN’T Recycle For plastic bags and soft plastics, our tip is to package them together and take them to your local grocery store e.g. Coles and Woolworths. These stores have soft plastics recycling initiatives. Alternatively, a soft plastics company like RedCycle (or equivalent) may be available in your area.

  8. Contact Your Local Council Depending on where you live, whether it's in a metro or regional area, your local council will have a recycling plan. We recommend contacting your local council and discussing your needs, and what resources you have available to you in your area to help you get started.

  9. Skip Bin Hire Near You Did you know a skip-bin provider can also provide you with additional recycling advice and services?
