Four simple steps turn the recyclables in your home into cash in your pocket — and material kept out of landfill.
Gather your recyclables — bottles, cans, paper and plastic — at home, school or work.
Rinse and dry your material. Clean recyclables are worth more and recycle better.
Separate into streams: plastics, paper, cans and glass. Sorted loads earn the best price.
Bring it to a buyback or Packa-Ching day. We weigh and pay you — make some kilorands!
From buyback to baling to onward shipping — and the community programmes that power it all.
Bring your clean, sorted recyclables to our Milnerton buy-back centre and get paid by weight.
