Holdfast Bay, SA initiates suburban food waste collection trial to lessen landfill contributions

The council selected 1,000 households across four suburbs to participate in the year-long trial. Each household receives a weekly collection of their food and organic waste bin. Council officials switched applicable households to biweekly general waste collections during the pilot. Holdfast Bay supplied participation bin stickers, compostable bags, and program guides at the outset. The collected waste is converted into fertilizer for local farms rather than added to the landfill.
