On one of my sleepless nights, I decided to make a list of where you can send your trash to a new life.
1. Old batteries:
♻️ Vietnam Recycles, please see this post: https://www.facebook.com/Vietnamtaiche/posts/3838936139471542 They also collect old electronics.
♻️ Gen Xanh:
- Cà phê Ngách 160: 160/29 Bùi Đình Túy, P.12, Bình Thạnh. 7 am – 10 pm.
- Vườn Nắng Outdoor café: 144 Đường 1A, khu phố 4A, Bình Hưng Hòa B, Bình Tân. 8 am – 6 pm
- 3A An Nhơn Tây, Củ Chi. 8 am – 6 pm
- Eijiko Kindergarten: 256-258 Lý Thường Kiệt, P. 14, Quận 10. 7 am – 5 pm (Mon-Fri)
They also collect old clothes, clean plastic bags, glass (caps and labels removed), clean and dry milk cartons. Please note that plastic bags are collected at Vườn Nắng Outdoor café and Củ Chi only. Cà phê Ngách doesn’t collect old clothes and Eijiko doesn’t collect glass. (https://www.facebook.com/genxanh.org/photos/pcb.1131887240599539/1164990597289203)
2. Old clothes:
♻️ H&M stores. You can drop off clothes from any brands and no matter what condition. It seems like they’ll accept from 5 items and above. (https://www.facebook.com/hmvietnam/photos/a.871315566351338/1987981078018109/)
♻️ Gen Xanh: see above.
3. Glass:
♻️ Gen Xanh: see above.
♻️ O-IBJC: if you live in D1, 2, 3, 7, 11, Bình Thạnh, Phú Nhuận and have more than 20kg of glass, you can contact them and they’ll come to your house to collect the glass. (https://www.facebook.com/oibjcvietnam/posts/480232256720187 )
4. Milk cartons: many locations. Remember to clean and dry them first. Please see this post: https://www.facebook.com/NHCNetwork/posts/991264811360045
5. Paper bags and carton boxes:
♻️ A little bit Floor 1, 340 Nguyễn Trọng Tuyển, P.2, Tân Bình. They also collect glass bottles/jars from 50ml to 500ml. (https://www.facebook.com/ALittleBitVn/posts/863154554251583 )
♻️ Or if you got your bags from me and they're still clean, I'd be happy to take them back.
