Recyclable Items

Members of the public can drop off, free of charge, a range of recyclable items as follows:

  • Cardboard - clean and dry
  • Polystyrene - clean and white
  • Glass bottles and jars
  • Aluminium cans
  • Metal items
  • Whitegoods
  • Electronic Waste (e-waste)

We recommend you attempt to drop off as much recyclable material as possible through our free drop-off area, before proceeding over the weighbridge to dispose of in landfill. This ensures you pay the least amount in fees and helps conserve natural resources through material recovery and reuse.

To save yourself time, we suggest you sort your load before you leave home to match the order that you will drop off your items.

Household goods and furniture in reasonable condition and suitable for reselling at our Reuse Shop, are also accepted free of charge (subject to approval by the inspecting attendant). Please note that some items are not permitted for resale. To view this list, please click here.
