At Tradie Bags, we believe responsible waste management is about more than just disposal—it’s about protecting the environment and supporting Sydney’s sustainability goals. Our service is designed to help tradies and builders recycle more and send less to landfill.
We encourage all customers to separate waste types to maximize recycling and reduce costs. Here’s what we can recycle:
Concrete, Brick & Asphalt – Reused for road base and construction.
Metals – Sent to local metal recyclers.
Clean Soil – Screened and reused in landscaping.
Timber Offcuts – Processed and used in engineered timber.
Paper, Cardboard & Plasterboard – Sent to specialist recycling partners.
PVC/PE Pipe Offcuts – Recycled into new plastic products.
Green Waste – Composted or mulched for landscaping.
Plasterboard – Used in fertiliser production.
E-Waste – Repaired and given a second life, or broken down and recycled.
