Our recycling station at Albany Eco House
Hi smart recyclers and zero-wasters!
We love that you are paying attention to the waste that is easily produced from everyday products that you use. There are heaps of ways to avoid producing waste in the first place but some things are more difficult than others.
There are many products that aren't currently recycled by most local councils. The City of Albany do a great job of their waste collection and recycling programs. See their website for details.
If you want to reduce your waste and you're stuck on particular items like food wraps, coffee, household cleaners and skincare products – we probably have reusable solution for you instore, or we can point you in the right direction.
