Group Description:
The City of Perth is working to align with the State's Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Strategy 2030 to become a sustainable, low-waste, circular economy in which human health and the environment are protected from the impacts of waste.

Australians send more than 20 million tonnes of waste to landfill every year. We just put things in the bin and the council takes it away. It’s out of sight and out of mind. But the amount of waste we generate is a big problem, and it’s only getting bigger.

The city is committed to our waste target to achieve 70 per cent diversion from landfill by 2025. We need your help to make small changes to recycle correctly to reduce our overall waste. Does your building have recycling bins? Do you have too many or not enough bins? It may be time to review and evaluate your waste services.
