Rethink Waste with Resource - A Free Behind The Scenes Tour
Event description
Join us for a tour of what we do to help reduce waste going to landfill. We’ll show you the treasure in trash and talk about the weird and wacky things we've discovered salvaging at the McRobies Waste Management Centre (the tip). We'll take you through our different waste busting areas including:
- E-waste and scrap metal recycling
- Computer refurbishment
- Timber reclamation
- Online sales
- Electrical testing
- Salvaging
- Our art from trash exhibition
- Collectables
- Our shop
This tour provides a great opportunity to see some of the waste challenges our community faces and explore some of the the solutions! You can also learn about what it means for us to be a co-operative!
