Batteries.

Recover the valuable resources stored inside these critters by dropping them off to a used battery deposit.

Aerosols.

These go with the hazardous household wastes. Keep out of the sun!

Disposable gloves.

Once properly contaminated, send this one straight to the general waste bin.

Ash/Charcoal.

Some composting solutions will love the ash, others, not so much.

Sports equipment.

Great to donate for communities and schools in need.

Coffee Grounds.

Full of nutrients for your garden or worm farms. Some FOGO bins like these too!

Biscuit Soft Plastic Lining

Makes sure to wash and dry the plastic before donating it. If no other options, it belongs in the general waste

Bin Liner.

Unsurprisingly, this one can go out with your other general waste.

Blankets.

If clean and presentable (unstained), these can be donated to many good causes.

Bricks (Construction)

Can be donated to others, or dropped off at specific recycling centres, but never binned kerbside.

Small glass bottles.

Remove the lid, give it a quick rinse, then check for a 10c refund symbol to see if you can make some money back. Think of ways to reuse them too, like storing liquids or trinkets.

Tea bags.

Remove any tags (if made from laminated plastic) and staples then throw them into your compost!

Pest control chemicals.

Aerosol or otherwise, these should be dropped off at your local recycling centre, in the 'Hazardous Household Chemicals" section. Never in kerbside bins.

Mobile Phone.

Donating, selling, or e-wasting are your best best with these nifty devices, whether you're going for an upgrade or ready to throw the dysfunctional thing in the nearest body of water.

Cable ties.

General Waste is the go-to for these, but check your local community for smaller initiatives to recover these, or learn how to reuse them.

Candle wax.

Natural made candles that contain non-toxic materials can be composted! You can also repurpose candle wax and make new candles or even wax seals!

Cardboard cartons.

Like with your cardboard boxes, cartons can be re-used for storage, or simply placed in the yellow bin.

Baskets.

If you don't need it anymore, donate to someone who might. If broken, place pieces in general waste.

Cellophane.

Reuse for craft projects where possible, send to soft plastics recycling if you or others don't need it, or place in the general waste bin to keep more microplastics off your suburbs.

Broken Glass.

General waste or recycling bin, but check your local council advice.

Cardboard drink carton.

Despite the cardboard feel of these, they aren't in the same category and should go in the red bin, after the tasty drink inside is fully enjoyed! Some Containers for Change depots will take them though!

Clips.

Try to reuse where you can, but if broken beyond repair the metal clips should go to metals recycling at your local recycling centre, while the plastics usually need to go in the general waste bin (too small to recycle in the kerbside recycle bin).

Furniture

If in good condition, try selling or donating. If broken, take to a recycling centre for proper disposal.

Aluminium Cans.

Check for the 10c refund icon on the back, then enjoy both the drink, and the payout afterwards!

Cosmetics Jars/Toiletries

Sometimes basic glasses, sometimes oddly shaped lipsticks or perfumes. Once empty, these can be recycled if they're the basic sort, but the more complex shapes can be taken to participating stores (see below).
