Residents in the City of Randwick have taken recycling to new heights with the help of an on-demand home collection service for problem waste.  Randwick City Council partnered with Sydney-based startup RecycleSmart in September 2019 to offer free recycling subscriptions to local residents.  The service known as a ‘Power Pickup’ offers all residential addresses in the Randwick LGA on-demand collection of tricky-to-recycle items: items that are recyclable, but cannot be recycled when disposed of in any of the household bins (i.e. soft plastics, e-waste, clothing, and misfits such as batteries and bulbs).

From the outset, the Dsmile kit was specifically designed to reduce, reuse & recycle. The Dsmile kit…
