What do you need to know about general waste?
While we focus on providing solutions to customers aimed at reducing waste in landfill, we know it isn’t always possible or commercially viable to recycle all waste. General waste is made up of those materials that can’t practically or technically be recycled.
General waste can be putrescible (containing organic matter which can break down) or non-putrescible (waste that doesn’t break down easily) – you might come across these terms on your invoice.

What happens to your waste?
After general waste is collected, it’s taken to a nearby Transfer Station.
Often a Resource Recovery Facility is the next step, where picking lines remove any larger pieces of recyclable material such as cardboard, metal or wood. Residual waste is then shredded, packed into specialised trucks and transferred to a landfill facility for disposal.
We’re always working to reduce the volume of waste going to landfill. Here in Australia, we operate several Refuse Derived Fuel plants (which turns non-recyclable waste into fuel pellets for industry) and we’re working on several Energy from Waste facility proposals, in which non-recyclable waste is converted into electricity.
