Alternative Recycling Options

There are a number of organisations accepting gas bottles for recycling. For a directory, please see https://www.recyclingnearyou.com.au/. (Please note that fees may apply).

Community Recycling Centres (CRCs)

Community Recycling Centres are permanent drop-off centres for common household problem wastes that are not able to be collected through a kerbside clean-up or through the domestic waste service. 

Gas bottles are accepted at some CRCs. All NSW householders can drop off wastes at most of these centres year round and free of charge!

One of the closest CRCs for Hills residents is located at Thornleigh and is operated by Hornsby Shire Council.

For more CRC locations and information of what each CRC accepts, visit Hornsby Shire Council's website.
