Grain Tubes
Grain tubes can now be recycled as part of the Plasback program at designated Plasback drop off points. Grain Tubes can only be accepted for drop of in a Plasback "Silage Wrap Only" green printed recycling liner.
The method outlined below maximises the amount you can get into a liner. It is important to ensure loose grain has been shaken off the cover before folding. A grain tube section of up to 10m x 15mm will fit in one Plasback liner once properly folded and rolled. Approx 4 plasback bags will recycle one 75 meter long grain tube.
see below.
