8/9/2021 0 Comments Council Waste Services That Adhere To the National Waste Policy for Efficient Waste Recycling In a Circular EconomyIt is generally recognised that Australia has a recycling and waste management problem. The country generates more waste than the average Western economy, and also recycles less than average. Up until recently, the country was sending much of its waste overseas for cheaper local alternatives, with China being a major destination. However, with the updated National Waste Policy 2018, there has been a shift to a circular economy that outlines roles and responsibilities for collective actions by businesses, governments, communities, and individuals. The policy emphasised the need of the government to increase the use of recycled content by the federal and state governments, and industries in Australia. A Circular economy model not only requires strict waste recycling techniques but also supports the development of new industries and jobs, and efficient use of natural resources, including material, water, and energy.
With renewed interest in recycling of waste and the circular economy, businesses, councils and residences in Australia have been looking for professional services providers who can dispose of their waste in a professional, safe and compliant way. Solo Resource Recovery is one such professional waste management company in Australia who have been providing services for council waste, businesses and residences, using state-of-the- art waste collection, disposal and management technologies, with a focus on waste reuse, recycling and minimal impact on the environment.
