About RecyclePoints

You earn RecyclePoints each time you recycle any of the listed recyclables. * Shredded Office Paper * Old Newspapers * Empty Plastic Bottles * Empty Pure Water Sachets * Glass Bottles (Clear glass, Brown glass, Green glass) * Used Beverage Cans (Aluminium and Steel cans) By Recycling we mean you neatly collate & separate these listed items in waste bags and notify RecyclePoints to pick up when the waste bags are full. You can also locate any RecyclePoints centre to drop your recyclable waste items. The number of RecyclePoints earned is calculated by the volume of items recycled.
