Waste collections are not impacted by Australian Services Union industrial action at this time, allowing Council services to return to normal. If customers have any missed collections, these should be reported to Customer Service (Phone: 03 8470 8888). Council will keep the community informed if this changes.
By 2035, Australia aims to double its circularity – transforming how we use, reuse, and regenerate resources across the economy.
For businesses, circular economy principles offer a pathway to resource efficiency, cost savings, resilience, and competitive advantage, going far beyond traditional waste reduction.
Create products that minimise waste, last longer, and can be repaired, reused or recovered at end of life.
Offer alternatives such as product‑as‑a‑service, leasing, repair services, take‑back schemes or reusable packaging systems.
Keep materials circulating through recycling, refurbishment, remanufacturing and regenerative practices.
