Hi
Can anyone advise me what to do or how to dispose of my F&B shop’s items as
we have closed our business and we have these items ;
1) Plastic cups with our brand logo (50ctns)
2) Dry Mix milk powder – Expired (16ctns)
I have called like over 30 companies, even Waste Disposal/Waste Management/Plastic Recycling companies & even NEA, no one is willing to
take our items to recycle. They all want to charge us quite a fee to dispose.
Can we sell cheap to any Buyers out there in Singapore & they can in turn sell
it as recycled products ?
Kindly advise asap as we need to clear & give up our warehouse soon.
Thanks
Madeline Ong
Hi Madeline,
Re the 50 cartons of plastic cups, perhaps you could approach an organization like Willing Hearts? http://www.willinghearts.org.sg/ and see if they need cups?
In case you haven’t heard of them, they “operate a soup kitchen that prepares, cooks and distributes about 4,500 daily meals to the needy, 365 days a year. Our beneficiaries include the elderly, the disabled, low-income families, children from single-parent or otherwise poverty-stricken families, and migrant workers in Singapore.”

Victoria
Hey Magdeline,
I know this response comes well after your predicament as mentioned above. I would like to know if you may be inclined to donate any excess resources as a means of recycling them. The resources will be redistributed or reused if possible to beneficiaries that may need them urgently. I am currently a tertiary student seeking willing suppliers that can support the cause. =)
Regards,
Nat
Hi there!
Happy to see SG NPO focusing on REDUCING single used plastic ware!
I am excited to meet the team as a volunteer to educate people about the importance of reducing waste!
Hi, I read your position paper on reducing the use of plastic disposables in Singapore. This is exactly what I have had in mind for a long time now, and would love to work on this programme if possible.
Could Zero Waste gather a team of volunteers to collect recyclable bags from homes and offices, and start a ‘Reuse’ project with these bags? Maybe you can collaborate with elderly homes/children’s homes/etc for this project? E.g. repainting/embroidery on these bags to make them ‘new’ again. Give them to RCs or charities for them to use as event goodie bags.
Hope this idea works!
Alternatively, volunteers can ask supermarts or minimarts to promote the reusing of recycable bags. They would use the collected recycable bags for product packing for customers. Customers could return the bags to any participating marts.
I love to volunteer to your project but I base in Cambodia. I got 8 years marketing experience. Adversting industry and bank.
Two reasons that I want to volunteer are:
1- to learn more abt waste Managment program
2- to help Cambodia reduce waste
Hi,
Where can I find unwanted wooden crates? Is there a place for people whom may be keen in re-using recycle materials?

Where does the e-waste collected by schools go to?
Dear Friends,
I am currently working on a (personal) biotechnology project, inspired by a paper published in Science about 1 year back (Yoshida et al., 2016). It is about the use of microbes in the recycling of PET. I am looking into using methods in synthetic biology to work on the recycling of PET.
Interested parties may contact me via the belowmentioned contact information.
Thanks.
Regards,
Lance
