Albury, NSW partners with Plastic Forests on soft plastic collection pilot for local businesses

Albury, NSW Plastic Forests Soft Plastic Collection Business

Twenty local businesses were selected for free weekly collection during the six-month pilot. Qualifying items like bubble wrap and plastic bags are sent to Albury-based Plastic Forests rather than the landfill. The manufacturer turns these materials into products ranging from fence posts to electric cable covers. Local officials are evaluating the pilot's impacts on business practices and landfill contributions ahead of a potential citywide expansion.
