Commercial cardboard recycling in Mentone
Schools are a bigger part of Mentone’s commercial picture than in most suburbs. Alongside the shopping village around Como Parade West and Florence Street, the suburb has several independent schools and kindergartens, and they produce paper on a scale most shops never reach: reports, exam papers, and books and supplies delivered in cartons. The village itself runs on cafés and specialty retail with small storerooms. Mentone is on Recyco’s south-east routes, between Cheltenham and Mordialloc and a short drive along Lower Dandenong Road from Braeside. Shops and cafés typically use an 1100L wheelie bin; a school with heavy term-start deliveries might combine a regular schedule with on-demand pickups at the start of each term.
