Cool to see. Where is this located? Is it a specific store or is there a whole chain doing it?

My local priceline stopped collecting these and empty makeup containers because people kept using them as bins

Is it actually being recycled or just stored in random warehouses?

Everytime I see these specialty recycling bins some plonker has put landfill in it. Even if a bin is nearby. It really isn’t hard to be base level considerate.

Chemist Warehouse it too

UFS stores have been doing this for a few years. My only criticism is that I wish the opening at the top of the box was a tiny but bigger, but it is amazing how many blister packs I get through and the program has been super welcome.

That’s good, but I still hate blister packs. Why are they even a thing?

They have existed a bit before war on waste. There are heaps of locations all over
They also have a postal bag if there isn’t a location near you. I just recycled some of mine at Zero Waste Festival a few weekends ago.Â
I know a few chemist warehouse locations have them.
I literally have a drawer that is divided up with soy milk cartons that I divide up all those hard to recycle items. Then I find a place to recycle it. Makes me happy!
