It takes a plastic bottle centuries to break down in landfill.
The same bottle, recycled, can become new packaging, clothing fibre or carpet within months. Rigid plastic bottles are one of the easiest wins in the yellow bin.
No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.
Central Coast Council collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.
