What is Life Cycle?
Life Cycle is a special waste collection service for recycling unwanted household goods.
It is an opportunity for you
to help the environment by
diverting household waste
from landfill sites while also
helping local charities in need.
The Life Cycle collection
service expands upon your
existing kerbside recycling
program. While your current
recycling service will remain
unchanged, on 3 specific
days each year the yellow
top bin will be used for what
is known as a Life Cycle day
after collection service.
Household goods will be sorted into groups with suitable items distributed to local charities while other goods will be broken down and recycled.
This website outlines what
household items can be
recycled and the 5 easy steps
to recycling your unwanted
goods.
For collection dates please refer to your fridge magnet or call 1800 838 884.
