Key messages
- Queensland is taking bold action to tackle waste and increase recycling.
- The new Less Landfill, More Recycling 2035: Queensland Waste Strategy aims to achieve an overall 65 per cent recycling rate and cut waste to landfill by 2.6 million tonnes by 2035.
- The strategy is a practical, ambitious plan focused on making recycling easier for households and businesses, investing in modern infrastructure, building stronger markets for recycled materials and tackling priority wastes including organics, plastics, batteries, mattresses, e-waste (including solar panels), textile and tyres.
- The strategy is backed by a $487 million investment over five years to deliver programs to boost recycling through the Waste Reduction and Recycling Activation Fund.
- Queenslanders are the second-worst recyclers in the nation, generating nearly 10 million tonnes of waste annually – or about one million garbage trucks. Too much is going to landfill and not enough is being recycled.
- Every Queenslander has a role to play. From big industry to the family sorting their bins, every action counts.
