Textile and E-waste Recycling Drop-off
Event description
THIS EVENT IS FOR CITY OF CASEY RESIDENTS ONLY, FOR HOUSEHOLD QUANTITIES. THIS EVENT IS NOT FOR BUSINESSES OR LARGE QUANTITIES.
We're working with Textile Recyclers Australia and Ewastec to recycle as many end-of-life textiles and unwanted e-waste as possible.
Please follow our information document for full details.Â
Items need to be sorted into labelled bags or boxes neatly for E-WASTE or TEXTILE RECYCLE (please no giant garbage bags as we need to be able to lift and move them easily). When deciding if your items should go to a local charity or be dropped with us for recycling, ask yourself if you would be happy to give or receive the item as a gift. People in need deserve items that will make them feel special, if your items are past their best, they should go into the RECYCLE pile.
This event is drive through, please stay in your car and follow staff directions.Â
