Hi Wesley,
Thank you for your question and for including a photo with your enquiry.
The “safety cone” you were searching for is a great example of community language and the different names we all use for everyday household items. While we currently do not have this item listed in the Recycle Mate database, we will review it with the team to add “safety cone,” “witches hat,” and “pylon” to help future users find what they’re looking for.
A safety cone is not recyclable in your home kerbside recycling bin. The kerbside system is designed to handle everyday packaging waste like bottles, jars, and containers, so other plastic household items cannot be processed.
If your safety cone is still in good condition and suitable for resale, use Recycle Mate to find a charity shop or other location nearby accepting donations.
If your safety cone is damaged or not in good condition, it will need to be placed in your general waste bin. For larger cones, please ensure it will not get lodged inside your bin and cause partial emptying issues.
If you discover any local recycling or re-use options, we would love to hear about them!
Thank you for your recycling enquiry. Every question helps us build a stronger platform for better recycling solutions in Australia.
Thanks Murphy
