Why recycle?
Recycling has environmental, economic and social advantages. Recycling generates civic pride and environmental awareness.
It helps prevent environmental pollution, and save natural resources by conserving raw materials used in industry.
Recycling reduces the amount of material dumped in landfill sites. Goods are used productively and prevented from becoming litter and garbage.
How to recycle?
Recycling is easy once you know how to. Please empty, and rinse all containers — make sure to remove any residual food or product waste before recycling to prevent cross-contamination. Most local councils have a kerbside collection of recyclables that involve placing your recyclables out on the footpath for collection on a set day — just like general waste collection. Your yellow bin is for items that can be recycled.
