Limiting what goes in our bins can start before you’ve even left the shops.
There are a number of reusable items you can purchase and reuse again and again in order to make your life more sustainable, help preserve energy and reduce waste to landfill. Purchasing reusable products usually helps your back pocket as well, saving money in the long run! Here are a few tips below that can make a difference:
1. Making a change is simple; next time you shop say ‘no thanks’ to plastic and use your own reusable bags.
2. You can now get reusable lunch boxes with compartments for different little snacks, which means less packaging.
3. Meat from the deli, nice and fresh, get the exact amount you’re after and less plastic too.
4. Buy in bulk for those school lunches, less wrappers means less waste.
Halve Waste was founded by Albury City Council, City of Wodonga, Federation Council and the Shires of Greater Hume and Indigo.
The Halve Waste program implements local solutions to reduce all wastes to landfill by 80% by 2030, which aligns with the State Government targets.
As a region, we all support the goals of Halve Waste and collaborate to achieve these goals.
