Toys for Joy Recycling Program

BIG W is partnering with TerraCycle to launch its Toys for Joy recycling program at BIG W Winston Hills.

Toys for Joy is a first of its kind toy recycling program providing Australian families with a sustainable solution for recycling their children’s pre-loved toys.

With Australians throwing away a staggering 26.8 million toys in the bin every year as options for recycling toys are scarce, with the majority not being kerbside recyclable.

Customers can simply drop preloved toys into the purpose-built Toys for Joy chest, which can be found at the front of all BIG W stores. However, BIG W cannot accept books, playdough and slime, pens, pencils, crayons or paint brushes, wooden toys, board games, batteries or oversized toys.
