A helping hand for your excess recyclables

We now have friendly attendants on-site at the Kew Depot Recycling Drop-off Centre to help sort and dispose of your cardboard and mixed recyclables.

This free service is perfect for when you move house, buy new furniture or host a big event at home. It’s also handy if your household’s recycling bin fills up before collection day or if you have large items that don’t fit in the bin.

We take anything you would usually place in your yellow bin. Simply drop off the following items to the facility and we’ll take care of it:

  • flattened cardboard boxes and excess cardboard packaging
  • paper
  • plastic bottles (lids and labels can be left on)
  • hard plastic trays and containers (does not include reusable food storage containers like Tupperware)
  • glass bottles and jars (lids and labels can be left on)
  • aluminium and steel cans.

Location: 31-35 Hutchinson Drive, Kew 

Opening hours:

  • Monday to Friday 7:30 am to 4:30 pm
  • Saturday and Sunday 10 am to 2 pm.
