WYNDHAM residents can recycle even more of their household waste after the council signed a new recycling contract.
The contract with SKM Recycling will allow residents to place pots and pans, dry and empty paint tins, plastic plant pots and plastic toys in recycling bins, along with the usual paper, cardboard, glass and plastic bottles.
Cr Cynthia Manson says the changes mean less waste will be sent to landfill.
“There will be no change in the day or process for bin collection, but the change will bring many environmental and economic benefits, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions and placing less pressure on natural resources to produce virgin materials.”
