Most councils now collect recyclable items separately from the general rubbish, which is great. But there are some items that can’t be collected by councils but can still be recycled, and there are many recycling collection sites around Australia.

Planet Ark runs a website which is very easy to use to find out your nearest recycling dpots for a range of materials.

Have a look at the site - you may be surprised at how much more you could recycle without a lot of time and effort. Or maybe you already recycle well and would like to share your tips with us…
