At Skips.com.au, recycling is more than just a service, it’s a core part of our mission. We sort, process, and divert recyclable materials from landfill wherever possible. From paper, cardboard, and metals to timber and green waste, we ensure that reusable resources are handled responsibly and redirected into the circular economy.

Recycling services are important to Victrorians

The Circular Economy (Waste Reduction and Recycling) Act 2021 is a legislation passed by the Victorian government in Australia that aims to facilitate the transition to a sustainable and prosperous circular economy by implementing Recycling services into the lives of everyday Victorians and the businesses that serve them. The main goal is to reduce waste and the reliance on landfill use, enhance the reuse and recycling of businesses’ materials, and provide improved regulation and oversight for the state’s waste and recycling sector.

Waste Recycling
