Waste management and recycling

The Barossa Council encourages the community to take the challenge to waste less, recycle more. Wasting less means keeping materials that can be recycled out of the red landfill bin. It is also thinking about how you might prevent making waste in the first place, or reuse, repair or repurpose the item or material before needs to be recycled.
