From watching the War on Waste it is clear that our Council is not on the forefront of recycling, either in NSW or Australia. How about a soft plastics program like the one on the Central Coast or better bin services which include food waste like the ones in SA? Having to drive your recycling at long intervals to a designated place (eg Kimbriki or Warringah) for a short pick-up period is not really practical and will not make any real difference.
