The best way to bring in your cardboard containers, plastic bottles and cans is in strong plastic garbage bags, with glass bottles in cardboard boxes that are not too heavy to lift.
If the containers are separated into different groups (i.e. cans, cartons, glass & plastic) the staff at Adelaide Hills Recycling Centre will be able to count them quicker than if they are all in one container.
Many people; realising collecting 10 cent refund containers is an effective way of fundraising for their community group, fill trailers with different containers in wheelie bins. Staff at Adelaide Hills Recycling Centre are then able to count the contents very quickly for you, allowing you to be paid and on your way much faster.
