Recycling

Hi

We don't use a lot of glass but is this the only stuff you get paid to take to the recycling depot? What about plastics etc?

Thanks
Michelle

Any plastic bottles that say you get 10c back and also cans - pop, beer etc....

you dont get anything back on wine bottles ( which surprised me!!), so ours go straight in the recycling bin at home.

The little drinks bottles, like ones in MacDonalds, cans of pop, Farmers union iced coffee cartons (not the plastic bottles though). It worth getting a bin and putting them all in, it amazing how it all adds up over time. x

Monty9110 you DO get 10c for every wine bottle!!! (Well we do down here in Aldinga anyway!!) You can recycle juice cartons, cans, glass bottles, plastic bottles and flavoured milk cartons. We took a box this morning and got $30 money for nothing!! :-)

You must have a very good recycling place need to check what we can take as we use big bottles of juice each week and be good to get money back on them as we don't drink a lot in our house!

i think its great for recycling , it reminds me of the deposit on corona and schweppes bottles. ( you might be to young for that)....but you do pay for it upfront. Go to another state and you will buy your beer cheaper.

But as said .....it makes me recycle............so it must work.
