Council's Community Waste and Resource Recovery Plan 2023-2030 outlines how bin collections and waste systems will change for our community over coming years.
The document, formed using thousands of community members' comments, has been prepared as a result of the State Government's Recycling Victoria Policy, which will introduce new waste streams to collect food organics and garden organics (FOGO) and glass, along with items for landfill and other recyclables.
It outlines ambitious targets for Council and the Yarra Ranges community to minimise waste and significantly cut the amount sent to landfill.
This Plan was endorsed by Council on Tuesday, 13 June, 2023.
To find out more about the changes, visit our webpage for FOGO collections.
