Plan signage waste at the project site and the depot. Identify electrical parts, composite panels, metals, vinyl and packaging before arranging a skip or return load.

Information to gather

  • Ask the client which removed signs and branded materials require controlled handling.
  • Separate electrical components from clean metal where it can be done safely by qualified people.
  • Obtain acceptance for composite panels and adhesive-backed vinyl before calling them recyclable.

What to check before deciding

Do not budget for a generic aluminium rebate: buyers need the actual grade and condition. Keep a record of what leaves each site and who receives it, including material returned to the depot.

Victorian landfills cannot receive e-waste; batteries need an appropriate dedicated collection route. See EPA Victoria - Electronic waste.

Send your site details and collection requirements to discuss the available options and written terms.
