Ask us about your recycling
For a long time, Australia has relied on other countries to take our recycling. Unfortunately, new laws have made this impossible.
So, recycling is changing, and Yarra is changing with it. From now on, we’re only accepting items that can be recycled in Australia to help to grow our local industry, create jobs and ensure we can recycle here in the future.

With the introduction of this new system, you may have some questions about your bins, and we want to help answer them.
