“Getting our recycling system back on track requires teamwork,” said Borough of Queenscliffe Mayor Cr Ross Ebbels. “That’s why our five councils are working together on a regional recycling approach, and why we’re asking residents to take extra care with sorting their recycling.” Cleanaway agreed to work with the councils to identify local secondary markets to maximise the sustainable reuse of recyclables, with an initial focus on the reuse of glass. There are some minor changes to what can and can’t go in the yellow lid bin:  – WHAT’S IN –  Empty clean rigid plastic bottles and containers labelled 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5; lids separately Clean paper and cardboard Clean steel food cans, aluminium cans and foil Clean glass bottles and food and sauce jars with their lids placed in the recycling bin separately.  – WHAT’S OUT –  Coated cardboard cartons that are used to package milk, soy milk, juice and various other liquids Bagged material in any type of plastic bag Soft plastic packaging such plastic bags, bread and frozen food bags Polystyrene packaging Plastic toys Metal pots and pans Clothing and footwear.

In an uncontested election and with the unanimous support of his fellow Councillors, Cr Ross Ebbels was elected Mayor of the Borough of Queenscliffe on Thursday evening.
