BRAD Sydney Drop-Off

Did you know that just 9% of plastic gets recycled in Australia? We want to change that and you can help us increase this number. Introducing an easier way to recycle your hard-to-recycle items with BRAD. All you need to do is purchase a BRAD drop-off, pop into our Sydney Sustainability Hub and recycle with us! 

What you need to know:

• Drop off anytime between 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday
  
• Location: Gadigal Land, Shop 19, 2 Lee Street Haymarket NSW 2000
• The maximum size of a return is up to 2 kg in weight or a shoe box
• For every drop off you will receive a $10 voucher to spend at Banish (minimum spend $50)

What can you recycle with BRAD

We don't discriminate which is why we're offering recycling for all brands and products not just the ones sold on Banish. Here's a list of what you can recycle via the program.

How it works:

1. Simply purchase a BRAD drop off for $10, this covers the cost of recycling your items. 

2. When you're ready head to the Sydney Sustainability Hub, located at Central Station. Take the Railway Square exit and you'll find us at Shop 19, 2 Lee Street, Haymarket.

3. Recycle your items and then you will receive $10 off your next Banish purchase (minimum spend of $50), this is also redeemable on workshops.

p.s You can still purchase BRAD Pre-Paid Labels if you'd prefer to send your recycling in the post rather than dropping it off, find out more here.

Why does it cost money?

- Recycling these items in Australia takes time, space and money. The products that we accept aren't made from materials that are easy to recycle so have to be sent to specialty centres. By purchasing a BRAD Drop off you're helping Banish fund the cost of recycling these items.

What this means for BRAD

- The money we receive from every drop off will go straight towards funding and growing the program

- We will be able to forecast the number of drop offs coming in to organise the right number of BRAD sorting sessions and stay on top of the mountain

- I have big dreams for BRAD which include sorting sessions for kids, BRAD days/events to educate more people and creating our own product with the waste that we collect, but all of these things cost money. As the program runs at a loss none of these can happen right now.

Important: if your collection is larger than a shoe box in size or heavier than 3kg then you will need to purchase two drop offs.
