Community Walking Tour: Recycling Centre

Past Event


Looking for an entertaining weekday activity for the school holidays? Join us on a FREE community walking tour of the Resource Recovery Group's Canning Vale Centre with the team from Recycle Right®.

You will get an inside look at what happens to kerbside waste and recycling after collection and how it is transformed back into a resource.

On this 90 minute tour you will view:

🍎 FOGO processing facility, where FOGO (food organics, garden organics) material is pre-processed to remove contamination.

🌳 Green waste facility, where bulk garden waste is received.

♻️ Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), where recyclables from the yellow top kerbside bins are separated, baled and sold for reuse.

👩‍🏫 Waste education centre, where there are more resources to help you to reduce, reuse and recycle.

🚌 Bus transport provided departing from Leederville Train Station.
