Swap & Wash Reusables Project

Geelong - help us make single-use for takeaway history

Aussies eat 4.5 million takeaway meals everyday.

And virtually all these meals are served in single-use containers and packaging that go straight into the bin. Sure some of them can be recycled or composted, but the reality is that most aren’t. Instead they enter our waste steam and if we’re careless, our waterways and oceans.

But, it doesn’t have to be this way.

Reusables are here for takeaway food. And we’re trialing a system for them in Geelong.

Be part of the change

  1. Buy a reusable Mealbox from a participating venue

  2. Use your Mealbox when you order takeaway

  3. Feel great about reducing waste

Let’s make single-use waste for takeaway history in Geelong.

 
 

About the Geelong project

We are super excited to join forces with Responsible Cafes, Sustainability Victoria, Geelong Sustainability and Huskee to bring this reusables trial to Geelong.

The trial is an initiative designed to reduce single-use coffee cup and takeaway packaging waste and reduce litter in Geelong.

Thank you for stepping up and joining the reuse revolution.
