At ReSmart, we recycle many different items. We are partnered with certified partners to divert valuable resources from landfill.

• Soft plastics will be turned back into oil or transformed into additives for asphalt.

• Textiles will be donated to local charities or recycled into fibers or more.

• Blister packs will be separated into aluminium and plastic, which will then be reused in steel products and construction materials.

• Polystyrene is granulated and pelletised for reuse in various applications, from building insulation, park benches and bee hives.

Some great spots to leave your bags on collection day:

• Outside your front door.

• By the intercom or letterbox

• If you’re concerned about the driver being able to find them, or you have somewhere more accessible in mind, just add a Pickup note when you make your booking or snap a photo of where you left them.

• Print this sign if you’re concerned that someone will move your bags.

If you live in a multi-apartment complex, we recommend you leave your bag in an area that can be accessed by anyone, like near the building entrance.

Here’s how to pack your bags like a pro:

• Group your soft plastics together (a plastic shopping bag works well!) so that they don’t fly around and are easy to pick up.

• Pop batteries into a zip lock or small plastic bag on top of your recycling so our drivers can spot them quickly.

• Seal your aluminium coffee capsules a small plastic bag.

• Our favourite trick is to keep all the smaller items on top of the bags.

These small steps help our team sort faster and make sure nothing gets missed - meaning even more items are saved from landfill. On behalf of the planet (and our friendly drivers), we say thank you!
