Plastic Vicks inhaler

Hi Alaan

Thank you for your recycling question, it’s a good one! Small plastic items like these are a real source of recycling confusion.

The Vicks inhaler tube in your photo can not be disposed of in your kerbside recycling bin. This item is too small to be processed through the kerbside system and will slip through gaps in sorting equipment.

Unfortunately, we are not aware of any other recycling opportunities for Vicks inhaler tubes in your local area so you’ll need to dispose of it in your general waste bin at home.

Thank you for reaching out to Recycle Mate. Every question like yours helps us build a stronger platform for providing better recycling solutions.
