Commercial cardboard recycling in Patterson Lakes

Patterson Lakes is built around water, and that shapes how its businesses handle waste. Commercial activity is concentrated around the shopping centre and the marina, where boating, engine and fit-out businesses receive parts and equipment in sturdy, bulky cartons. Cafés and restaurants near the water add steady food packaging, especially across summer. Storage is limited on most of these sites, and loose cardboard near the water and car parks tends to blow around. Patterson Lakes is on Recyco’s south-east routes, between Carrum, Chelsea Heights and the Carrum Downs industrial area via McLeod Road and Thompsons Road. Most sites suit an 1100L wheelie bin; marine businesses dealing with larger equipment packaging can use a 3m³ high-capacity bin.
