Residents will also be able to bring their containers in larger amounts.
The over the counter service has outgrown its capacity with up to 1.5milliion containers being manually counted in the eight months it’s been operating.
The new and improved service is an outcome of Resource Recovery Australia’s partnerships with MidCoast Council and Tomra Cleanaway.
Resource Recovery Australia is installing an automated depot to replace its over the counter collection point.
It has a mechanical scanning and counting system that provides for efficient processing of bulk lodgements meaning faster processing and the 500-container limit per customer will no longer applying.
