Waste & recycling initiatives

Since the endorsement of the Solid Waste Strategy 2024 we have rolled out a number of initiatives to improve solid waste management in the City of Gold Coast.

These have included:

State Government initiatives:

Current initiatives run by the City are:

Recycle Street

Recycle Street makes recycling easier, faster and more convenient. This initiative is a one-stop facility to recycle unwanted items when you visit the recycling centres.

Sustainability Bundle

With the right bins, you can increase what you recycle and decrease the waste that goes to landfills. The Sustainability Bundle makes it easy for residential households to choose a set of bins that suits their lifestyle.

Green organics drop & go

To make recycling of green organics faster and easier, the City expanded its network of green organics drop and go sites at our waste and recycling centres across the Gold Coast.
