Byron Shire's Move to Reuse

The volume of single-use packaging and materials, such as takeaway containers, has risen rapidly.

Single use packaging, materials and decorations are created without considering what happens to them at the end of life or the resources required to manufacture them in the first place.

This is why we are moving towards eliminating these materials from our operations, events and facilities.

Discover more about our Single use Packaging and Materials Policy, find out how you can Move to Reuse, plus get resources to help you.
