Precious Plastic Taringa

It's time for another plastic bag blitz at Precious Plastic (Taringa)

There are currently no plastic bag processors in Queensland (RedCycle is based in Victoria). 100% of plastic bags disposed of in waste bins are landfilled in this State. This needs to change and it starts now. Come and help process a large mountain of plastic bags and keep them away from landfill!

Tasks include:
* Wash/Rinse
* Hang out to dry
* Sort and store clean dry bags
* Densifying

How you can help:
* Take some bags home to process in your own time
* Provide space to hang washed bags out to dry (up to 6 hours depending on weather)
* Visit PPT headquarters to help out anytime between 0600 and 1900 (any day except Tuesdays). Even one or two hours will make a big difference. Please PM/text/email before visiting.

Send a PM, send a text to 0490 060778 or email [email protected] to learn more or offer help.

Just a quick note to let everyone know that Precious Plastic (Taringa) is still going strong and expanding in spite of (and possibly because of) the efforts of government agents. I haven't posted much here because these same government agents are monitoring this page so it's better to just keep working and not feed them anything.

What I can say is that I'm past half a million bottle caps now! I still want more plastic items for recycling. I recently took delivery of 25 busted wheelie bins which are being cut up ready for the shredder.
