SOFT PLASTIC RECYCLING DROP OFF POINTS in CARDINIA
We know many people are wondering if the soft plastics drop-off service is reliable again ๐ค
๐ The good news: new infrastructure is now in place, with multiple processing sites across Australia already handling materials โ including the backlog from the previous RedCycle program.
You can confidently return your clean, dry soft plastics to participating Woolworths stores, where theyโll be turned into new products like building materials and food-grade packaging.
๐ค Together, we can keep soft plastics out of landfill and make sure theyโre recovered for reuse.
๐บ๏ธ Cardinia Shire Woolworths drop off locations:
โข Beaconsfield โ 28 Sylvia Rd
โข Emerald โ 383โ385 Belgrave-Gembrook Rd
โข Officer (Arena) โ Cnr Princes Hwy & Cardinia Rd
โข Lakeside (Pakenham) โ 9 Village Way
โข Pakenham Marketplace โ 55 Henry St
โ ๏ธ Please remember: only soft plastics should go into these bins as contamination with other materials can make recycling more expensive and possibly too difficult to process.
Please use designated drop-off locations or dispose of them in your red lid bin โ
