Councils all over Australia are struggling with costs to better service their communities. Communities all over Australia are alarmed by the amount of waste humans are producing, want to do something about it, but aren’t sure how.
To tackle these two big challenges, RecycleSmart has built Australia's most comprehensive recycling app with Planet Ark. The App, called ‘RecycleSmart App’, is part of an ambitious campaign to reduce environmental cost of waste, and jumpstart the Circular Economy. The Circular Economy is a sustainable approach to waste, in which all waste gets turned back into useful products.
Equipped with the ‘RecycleSmart App’ residents and their families will know exactly how to recycle, including the responsible handling of bins, rubbish collections and hazardous materials. The ‘RecycleSmart App’ also allows councils to communicate directly with their communities, and allows residents to communicate with their council. Reporting illegal dumping, large waste pickups, book a council pick up, and other resident waste issues has never been easier. Simply click the “Tell Your Council” button to connect with your council.
With some of Sydney’s biggest councils using the platform, Noosa Council and RecycleSmart will start a new direct local action program this month. The aim will be to empower every resident to be a part of the Zero Waste to Landfill movement, by downloading the ‘RecycleSmart App’, in the next 3 months.
Marco Prayer, RecycleSmart co-founder, said “RecycleSmart is the clearest solution towards our shared, critical goal of Zero Waste to Landfill. The App and Council Platform simplifies our administration of waste & recycling programs, enables two-way communication between residents and the council, and helps directly address key financial, social and environmental costs of poor waste management.”
The ‘RecycleSmart App’ is available to all Australians and their 560 Councils. Designed to give users quick and easy access to all the disposal information, features include the time when waste needs to be placed on the curbside, and helpful push notifications reminding users to put their bins out, together with a two-way communication tool between residents and councils called “tell your council”.
RecycleSmart helps:
- Empower individuals to take action and reduce unnecessary waste.
- Empower individuals to save their local council $millions in general waste disposal.
- Invite the community to be a part of the Zero waste to landfill, Circular Economy revolution.
