Residential Estates Recycling

Living in a secure residential estate in South Africa means community living with amenities that add value to your lifestyle. One of these features should include a recycling programme like the sort Mpact Recycling offers, as this not only helps to improve your city and suburb’s environment and keep it clean but is also beneficial to the South African economy.

Here are more benefits to getting recyclables into the recycling stream and diverted away from landfill. Our Residential Estates Recycling Programme is so easy and convenient for residents and HOAs.

Here’s how it works.

Benefits of using our Residential Estate Recycling Programme:

• Reduce your carbon footprint by recycling things that can “live again” thereby decreasing use of natural resources.
• Drive the circular economy – by recycling, nothing goes to waste as your recyclables are used in the South African packaging industry.
• It’s convenient – no registration required on behalf of individual residents; your HOA signs up.
• It’s easy – we supply 2 bags, no need to sort recyclables, we do that for you. Residents simply put bags out on collection day.
• It’s cost-effective - our service fee is included in a monthly levy billed to the estate. We work closely with HOAs to create the most suitable and affordable solution.
• Our service is reliable and consistent – as the leading recycler in SA, our fleet is efficient and collects all-year round, except Christmas Day, when an alternative arrangement will be made.
• Reduce waste going to landfills, which are dangerously full-to-capacity with less than 10 years of space left.
• Support thousands of jobs by recycling – there’s both a formal and informal sector (the waste collectors) that rely on the constant flow of recyclables for their income.
