WHAT CAN AND CAN'T BE RECYCLED

Containers-for-Change_SocialTile_Eligibl

Most glass, plastic, aluminium, steel and paper based cartons between 150ml and 3L

As shown in the graph, our community has donated over 68,000 containers from Nov 20 to Sep 21 through Rotary Kenmore and Partners. Since starting this  project in November 2018 Kenmore Rotary and Partners saved  in excess of 220,000 containers from landfill. 

Please do not recycle wine bottle, juice  bottles, spirit bottles or milk containers - everything else is welcome.
