Batteries don’t go in any bin. 🗑️🙅♂️
Putting batteries in your kerbside bins can cause fires in your bins and in the trucks that collect them. Instead, take used batteries to a battery drop off location to be recycled safely.
Visit our website or download the Recycle Mate app to find your nearest drop off location, greaterdandenong.vic.gov.au/which-bin
Today is Global Recycling Day 🌏♻️
Small changes can make a big impact. A small change that you can make is keeping plastic bags out of your recycling bin.
Recycling in plastic bags can’t be processed by sorting facilities, even if all the bagged items are recyclable. This means the hard work you put into sorting your recycling will go to waste!
