Hi Naomi,
Thank you for reaching out.
Yakult bottles cannot be disposed of in your kerbside recycling bin because they are too small and will slip through gaps, becoming lost in the sorting machinery. While some states accept Yakult bottles in container deposit schemes, they are not accepted in any programs available in your local area.
Please dispose of these bottles in your household general waste bin instead.
Thank you for contacting Recycle Mate. Feel free to reach out anytime if you have further enquiries.
Thanks Murphy
