Helping MUDs and holiday managers 'get sorted'
Help your visitors to get sorted and choose the right bin with these free educational signs and resources.
We love living in the Bega Valley’s beautiful, pristine environment on the Far South Coast of NSW. And tourists from all corners of the world love it too! That is one of the reasons we want to reduce the environmental impact of sending resources to landfill by helping residents and visitors alike to choose the right bin.
How can help visitors to recycle right
Contamination of FOGO and recycling bins is one of the biggest risks to keeping precious resources out of landfill. During peak tourism periods the risk of contamination is much higher. We know that in other areas bins can look different. Helping to make choosing the right bin as easy as possible is the key to getting it right and getting waste sorted.
Resources
Below is a list of resources you can download and email as part of your booking process or order to include in rooms, compendiums or central bin areas.
