Skip Bin Audit
An audit of skip bins was undertaken at Mugga Lane Resource Management Centre landfill face from 23 to 27 June in order to better determine the composition of material delivered by skip to landfill. Over 200 skips delivering over this time had their loads visually inspected. The aggregated details of the over 200 skips contents can assist skip bin collectors to determine sorting opportunities, assist major recyclers in understanding what recycling opportunities are available, and assist government in developing education programs and leaflets in cooperation with skip bin organisations for waste generators to better understand how to best use skips. A final report without commercial in confidence details should be made available on the ACT NOWaste website in July.
