Recycling
Bit of a windy night last night, or else someone enjoyed tipping over recycling bins - anyway, my husband picked up a load of stuff that had fallen from a bin last night and replaced it. However he noticed that a good deal of what had fallen out was not actually recyclable through the bin. An example was, lots of small plastic packets from sweets or collectable cards, that should get collected up as soft plastic, to be taken to Countdown Supermarket. There were also some plastic inserts from packaging that did not have a recycle number 1,2,5 or 6, they should be in the rubbish bin. I think people are trying hard to do the right thing, but getting confused about what goes where. I found out recently that you can recycle tetra packs by washing and drying and collecting them up to go to the Junction (leave the lids on).
I have heard that Fitzroy in particular is not doing very well at getting the right recycling in the right place - I think we can do better if we help each other to know what is recyclable and where it should go.
