RECYCLING

FOGO (Food Organics, Garden Organics)

By placing your food, cardboard/paper

products and garden waste in the lime

green FOGO bins organic material is

diverted from landfill and taken to a

composting facility to be recycled and

turned into a rich compost.

LANDFILL BIN

Placing household waste items into

your red lid landfill bin should be a

last resort after you have tried to

reduce, reuse and recycle. Your red

lid bin is emptied fortnightly and

taken to the Landfill Management

Facility.

The paper, cardboard, glass, aluminium, steel and plastic containers are recycled at a

Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). The facility mechanically and manually sorts and

separates the recyclables into different streams of paper, cardboard, glass,

aluminium, steel and plastic containers. The separated materials are then

compacted into bales and taken by trucks to reprocessing facilities, and used in

making new products.

ZERO WASTE CLEANING

Tools: • Spray Bottle

• Rag/reusable cloths• Old tooth brush

• Wooden brush• Gloves

Ingredients: Bi-carbonate soda – works as a mild abrasive, helping to gently scrub things. Benefit is it won’t scratch or damage most delicate surfaces. Removes smelly odours, great stain remover, can soften loads of laundry.

Castile Soap – a plant oil based soap, that can be used to clean almost anything in your home. Diluted liquid castile soap an be used as an all-purpose cleaner. Liquid castile soap is an excellent degreaser.

Citric Acid – an acid that reduced water hardness and creates foam, making it especially useful in soaps, laundry detergents and as a cleaning agent. Since it’s a natural preservative it prevents water hardness, its chemical composition helps get dirt and grime off surfaces and out of clothing. Citric acid also prevents water spotting and hard water film Citric acid is also antibacterial and antiseptic. It works great on most surfaces and even hard to clean areas.

Essential Oils – helps add a pleasing scent.

Lemons & Lemon Juice- a natural bleach, especially when combined with the sun. Natural degreaser, which comes in handy with dishes and ovens. Great for scrubbing copper bottom pots, shower screens.

Salt – an abrasive solution for scrubbing. Use salt to get rid of rust and mildew. Helps polish copper and silver.

Vinegar – can be used as a fabric softener in the rinse cycle of your washing machine. Makes a great all-purpose cleaner. Mopping with vinegar is an inexpensive way to keep your floors clean. Great stain remover. Combined with baking soda makes a great foaming toilet cleaner.

Recipes:

All-Purpose Surface Cleaner• 1 cup boiled water• 1 cup white vinegar• ½ lemon juiced (optional)• 20 drops essential oil (lavender, peppermint or orange)Pour all the ingredients into a 500 ml spray bottle (use a funnel if need). Gently shakethe cleaner. This cleaner will need to be stored in the fridge between uses due to freshlemon juice.DO NOT use vinegar cleaner on marble or granite as it can etch the surface

Castile Soap Surface CleanerFor Marble Granite Surfaces:• 2 Cups boiled water• 2 Tablespoons Castile Soap• 20 drops essential oil (optional)Pour the water into a 500 ml spray bottle (use a funnel if need) Add the castile soap andessential oi. Gently shake the cleaner, This cleaner may be stored at room temperature.

Sinks, Baths, Oven & Stove Tops• Sprinkle Bi-Carb Soda over area• Squeeze lemon juice• Soak for 10 minutes• For an abrasive add salt to top of lemon half and rub to remove all scum.• For stubborn areas use steel wool

Toilet Cleaner• Sprinkle Bi-Carb Soda over area• Spray with vinegar and lemongrass oil or lemon juice• Leave 10 minutes• Wipe down for a perfectly clean bowl

Natural Mould Killer• 4 Litres of Hot Water• 1 Tablespoon Bicarb Soda• ½ cup of White Vinegar• ¼ teaspoon clove bud oil• 500 ml warm waterFirstly mix 1 tablespoon of bi-carb soda and ½ cup of white vinegar into 4 litres of hot water.Clean the area down giving it a quick scrub to remove any other contaminants such as soap that might protect the mould from the next step.Mix ¼ teaspoon of clove bud oil with 500ml of warm water, place in a spray bottle and spray the mouldy surfaces. Leave for 20 minutes – the mould spores will be activated and looking for moisture, wipe down the sprayed surfaces and then re-spray and leave it to kill the mould for between 24/48hours, where the mould spores will dry out and fall off. *This mix will kill the mould present at the time of spraying, but if the root cause is not fixed, mould will be back! Sunlight and good ventilation are the best preventative measures to use.

Natural Toilet Fizz Bombs• 1 cup of bi-carbonate soda• 1/3 cup of citric acid• 2 cap lids eucalyptus oil• 40/60 drops of peppermint and/or lemon oilIn a bowl add 1 cup of bi-carb soda and 1/3 cup of citric acid.
