About
Welcome to the Home of Roll ‘n’ Recycle® where you will find everything you need to know about recycling plastic pouches and bags that carry the unique Roll ‘n’ Recycle® Mark. We are so pleased you came to visit!
Let’s make a BIG difference together.
The Roll ‘n’ Recycle® Mark explains when and how a plastic pouch can be recycled at kerbside (your household recycling bin).
Plastic pouches that do not include the Roll ‘n’ Recycle® Mark may be recyclable at drop-off bins at the front of the major retail stores. Please check the REDcycle website for information about this program in Australia and New Zealand.

How it Works
The Roll ‘n’ Recycle® team has worked tirelessly with packaging manufacturers, brand owners and recycling specialists to ensure that with just a few steps, Roll ‘n’ Recycle® packaging can now be recycled in household recycle bins! HooRah!
Buy products marked with ‘Roll ‘n’ Recycle®
When you buy products displaying the ‘Roll ‘n’ Recycle® Mark, you can be excited that not only will you love the product inside, but the packaging will be recycled when disposed.
ROLL IT! It is the most important thing you need to do
Once packaging is empty, roll as shown until you finish with a cylinder in the shape of a "9" or a "6" (you see it below in step 4).
Stick it real good!
Lift and peel the supplied sticker and stick firmly where indicated to ensure the shape (a "9" or a "6" shape) is maintained in your recycle bin and the recycling collection journey.
Place the rolled packaging into your Recycling Bin at home
This one is self-explanatory. An adult, child, pet or even a favourable gust of wind can take it, just make sure it gets into the recycling bin.
Voilà! You are a recycling magician!
Do you know what you just did? You just turned a flat “two dimensional” piece of packaging into a “three dimensional” shape. This means it can be sorted correctly at a facility once picked up and recycled.
Nice one Copperfield!
