Fremantle, WA and East Fremantle seek reductions in single-use cups with Our Kinds partnership

Local officials approved the partnership in anticipation of a 2023 state ban on single-use plastic coffee cups. Twelve shops across the two municipalities were recruited for the three-month pilot. Our Kinds supplies each shop with reusable cups, which are then offered to every customer. Reusable cups are used, washed, and returned to the shop at no cost to the customer or owner. QR codes on the cups are scanned upon return for data on program participation.

Melville, WA incentivizes waste reduction by parents and carers with Cloth Nappy Rebate

Melville worked with Fremantle and East Fremantle leaders to design a rebate program that decreases landfill waste. The council offers 50% refunds on nappy purchases and services up to $200 AUD per participant. This incentive is available for parents as well as seniors in need of adult nappies. Every applicant must complete a workshop by Nappy Guru on how to transition from single-use to reusable products.
