(empty with lids off) (whole & broken) All paper, junk mail, glossy magazines & cardboard products (empty) All metal containers, steel & aluminium including aerosol cans Recycle Right recycleright.wa.gov.au We all know recycling is a simple way that everyone can help the environment. Recycle Right is a campaign which encourages and assists residents and businesses to recycle, reduce their rubbish and buy more recycled products. The 3 R s reduce, reuse and recycle are a simple way to rethink the things that you no longer need and make a difference today! EASY TIPS FOR BETTER RECYCLING: All plastic containers & plastic wraps All glass & ceramics In the yellow-topped bin you can place; All plastic All metal All glass, even broken glass All paper Place items loosely in the bin, this helps with the sorting process at the Regional Resource Recovery Centre (RRRC). Before placing anything in either bin, ask yourself can this be reused? Better to reuse before recycle. Household Waste & Organic Waste The green-topped bin is for household waste, such as kitchen scraps and garden clippings, which can be composted, just like a home compost bin Some things should not go in either bin, such as batteries, electronic devices or e-waste, or hazardous household waste. Disposal options for these are given in this calendar.

Recycling s as easy as RRRC The Regional Resource Recovery Centre, or RRRC, is a green initiative of the Southern Metropolitan Regional Council, (SMRC). Covering an area of 340km2 and a combined population of around 260,000 residents, it uses state of the art technology and infrastructure to process waste and recover recyclables for reuse. The RRRC diverts more than 60,000 tonnes of waste per year from landfill and prevents about 70,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere, which is equivalent to taking more than 7,000 cars off the road. Why not come an d see! The Regional Resource Recovery Centre in Canning Vale offers FREE TOURS of the facility so you can come and see first-hand what happens to your waste once it leaves the kerb.
