This week is National Recycling Week. Here are some tips & tricks to make sure that your items are being recycled.

 

First Things First - are you sure it can be recycled? See our blog post on How Recyclable is Your Plastic for some tips and tricks!


Get rid of any lids - whilst most plastic and glass bottles and cartons can be recycled, the lids cannot. Instead, collect them and take them to a recycling facility near you.

 

Wash your recycling - Make an effort to rinse out anything you intend on sending to recycling, which will not only streamline the process but also keep your bins from smelling!


Don’t bother with bags - It’s far easier for everyone involved and much kinder to the environment if your rinsed and sorted recycling stays loose and easy to sort through.


Know which bin to fill - Whatever you don’t believe can be recycled, consider if it could be composted or saved for verge collection.


Reduce & Reuse - If you find yourself regularly filling your bins before collection days, perhaps think about investing in sturdy reusable containers or opt for products with minimal packaging.


It may not sound like much, but these simple, smart changes can make a big difference to the environment!  


Logistics Status & Pricing Update | 8th Feb 2022

Further to the previous logistics update, the spread of omicron variant continues to play havoc with many courier drivers, warehouse staff, forklift drivers, container unpack crews and administrators across the country.

To make logistics even more difficulty the East-West rail line is closed due to significant flooding including to both the Eyre and Stuart Highways, South Australia.

Please allow (at least) an extra 14 business days on top of your estimated date for arrival.

envirocare earth has always worked our best to minimise delivery costs but as a result of the ongoing issues affecting logistics all online orders will now attract a delivery charge.

FLAT RATES -  WA $15.00, INTERSTATE $20.00.

We encourage you to order in bulk; saving on product, delivery and helping the environment.

Your patience and understanding is appreciated and we hope that normality can return soon.

Omicron Logistics Status Update | 12th Jan 22

The rapid spread of the Omicron variant has further impacted the logistics industry. This includes many courier drivers, warehouse staff, forklift drivers, container unpack crews and administrators.

Due to the widespread impact of Omicron infections, our partnered carriers across the network are experiencing both a surge in parcel deliveries and major disruptions to their delivery services. With a significant number of people in self-isolation in accordance with state regulations and public health orders, delivery delays are expected across the network due to driver shortages, depots experiencing temporary closures and/or operating with significantly reduced staff.

This has also created some lags in tracking details being updated on carrier websites.

Please allow (at least) an extra 14 business days on top of your estimated date for arrival.

Your patience and understanding is appreciated.
