Blister packs

Drop off empty medicinal blister packs for recycling at any Blooms the Chemist, Chemist Warehouse or National Pharmacy stores – visit Pharmacycle for local drop-off locations

Note: Due to increasing drop-off volumes, some stores may pause the service once their allocated bins are full for the week, or limit access to their customers only. To help keep this service available to as many residents as possible, please limit drop-offs to around the size of a 2L ice cream container per visit.

If not empty, take medications in original packaging if possible to any pharmacy for FREE, appropriate disposal as part of the RUM project (Return Unwanted Medicines). 

 If all aluminium foil - wrap in with other left over foil and make into the fist size ball and place in the recycling bin.

OR

 Put it in the red/waste to landfill bin.
