How it works
Book
Pick a date in the ReSmart app or on the web. Pay per pickup, or use your council's subsidised pickups where they apply.
Bag it
Anything you can scrunch in your hand goes in: bread bags, frozen food bags, bubble wrap, chip bags, wrappers, pouches. Clean and dry, so it doesn't mould.
Leave it out
Put your items at your door on pickup day. Our driver collects them with anything else you’re recycling, and you can see where it all ends up.

What happens to your soft plastics
We work with multiple soft plastics recyclers to offer the best solution available in your area. Your soft plastics are transformed into feedstock oil, which can become soft plastics again, rather than ending up in landfill.
