Trim Your Bin: a free program to help local businesses reduce waste

The City of Casey has partnered with Frankston City Council and Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to deliver a program to help businesses reduce waste, save money and help the environment.

If you are a business in Casey, you can join the Trim Your Bin program. The program is free and will help you improve your waste practices with expert help and advice.

Trim Your Bin is expected to help businesses use less resources, reuse more materials, and recycle better. It will help Casey businesses save money, space and energy, and protect the planet.

The program has been developed with the support of the Circular Economy Councils Fund. The fund is delivered by Sustainability Victoria under the Victorian Government’s circular economy policy, Recycling Victoria: A New Economy.

All registered businesses in Casey, Frankston and Mornington are eligible to participate in the program. The program is free but has limited space.
