Great news for Victoria!

A new four-bin kerbside rubbish system will help Victorians recycle problematic items like soft plastic from home.

Here's how it works:
💜 Purple bin: Glass only
💚 Green bin: Food scraps and garden waste
💛 Yellow bin: Mixed recycling, including soft plastics and pizza boxes
❌ Red bin: Household rubbish destined for landfills

The recycling reforms will roll out across the state by 2030, addressing contamination with the extra bins, and investing in a new recycling facility to recycle beverage cartons, coffee cups and soft plastics into building products.
