Tips to save money, reduce waste All general household waste
collected in Mosman goes to landfill at Belrose. This landfill
will soon be full to capacity, at which time a new landfill site
will have to be found. Waste disposal is a significant cost to
all residents, through council rates and government taxes.
Reducing your waste to landfill is the only way to reduce the
detrimental impacts of waste on our environment. Try these smart
tips to reduce the amount of waste you produce. - Rethink your
purchases – only buy what you really need. - Avoid excessive
packaging, try to buy items with recycled packaging. - Say NO to
plastic shopping bags – use cardboard boxes or cloth bags. -
Buying bulk is often cheaper – don’t always buy single serve
products. - Buy reusable items instead of disposable products
such as plastic and paper plates. - Choose products with
recycled content, such as recycled paper. For more information
