AU: plant pot recycling bins in Victoria

Garden City Plastics, Polymer Processors and Norwood, have joined forces to help consumers, retailers and growers, to recycle their PP5 plastic pots, punnets, carry trays, and plant labels.

They’ve provided a host of wholesale growers with plant pot recycling bins to help them to breathe new life into each of the many, many plant pots they use onsite. 

They’ve also given a host of retail garden centers with plant pot recycling bins to give consumers the opportunity to breathe new life into an old pot and close the loop on PP5. 

All you need to do is:

1 - Check: This bin is for PP5 black or color plant pots, punnets, carry trays, and plant labels
2 - Tap: Prepare for bin drop by thoroughly tapping out soil
3 - Stack: Stack pots and trays and remove them from carry bags

Once the bins are full, Garden City Plastics will arrange for their collection and recycle the used items into new pots. More growers and retailers will receive the recycling bins in due course. 

As an industry we get through millions of plastic pots, punnets, carry trays, and plant labels each year; Garden City Plastics, Polymer Processors, and Norwood are providing a solution to eliminate waste and operate more sustainably.

Keep tabs on which growers and retailers are already Plant Pot Recycling Bin hosts.
