The town of Hermanus takes pride in its development of a very successful Recycling at Source programme since 2005.
Hermanus Recycling wants to encourage residents to use these four easy steps to make recycling easy:. Buy yourself one roll of transparent refuse bags. If you recycle using a black bag, your recycling will end up in the landfill with all the general household waist.. Fill your transparent bag with cans, bottles, paper and plastic.. Put your transparent bag out next to your black bag on refuse removal day. You will be rewarded by the municipality leaving you a replacement transparent bag.. This way you will keep your own roll of transparent bags as a back-up for those weeks the wind blows your free bag away or your free bag gets lost for whatever reason.
If you are uncertain of what to recycle, contact Hermanus Recycling on 083 310 2319.
