The City of Fremantle is getting into the holiday spirit by offering the free use of Containers for Change recycling bins for local parties during the festive season.
The City will arrange to drop off and pick up the bins to any residence within a 10 kilometre radius of the City of Fremantle Containers for Change refund point on Knutsford Street.
Fremantle Mayor Hannah Fitzhardinge said the Containers for Change recycling bins offer a convenient way to earn some extra cash for the holidays, as well as ensuring eligible containers are diverted from landfill.
"The holidays are a great time to get together with family, friends and neighbours and celebrate the festive season," Mayor Fitzhardinge said.
"These special recycling bins are suitable for all cans, bottles and cartons marked with the Containers for Change 10-cent refund logo.
"Each bin can hold around 250 containers, which equates to a $25 refund that can go back into your own pocket or be donated to a worthy charity.
"We're offering this service not just to City of Fremantle residents but to anyone who lives within 10 kilometres of our Containers for Change refund point, which includes suburbs as far away as Swanborne and Claremont to the north, Coogee and Yangebup in the south and Bullcreek and Booragoon to the east.
