Soft plastic

Soft plastics should only go in your red/blue landfill bin, never in your yellow recycling bin or green organics bin.

If a bag is certified compostable, that is, it has the AS-4736 Australian Standard 'seedling' logo (pictured below) printed on it, then it is safe to go in your green organics bin. These bags are designed to break down in a commercial composting facility.
