Three ways to reduce the amount of waste you produce

1) Compost your food scraps and garden waste at home. You can purchase one from your local hardware store. Council can also provide information for establishing a worm farm.

2) To Minimise packaging be selective when purchasing by choosing products with minimal packaging, or buy items with packaging that can be recycled (cardboard containers rather than polystyrene or plastic wrap).

3) Purchase recycled products regularly to ‘close the recycling loop’. Many items are now recycled or contain recycled content – check the labels when next out shopping.
