The Minchinbury Fruit Market Return and Earn Machine will permanently close on Saturday 5 August 2023 at 6pm. The landlord has terminated the contract to allow for additional parking at the site. The network operator, TOMRA Cleanaway has worked with the local council and businesses to identify an alternative location for the machine. We will contact the local community when the machine is available for use.
