In the first month of the new weekly food and garden bin service, Knox residents have halved the amount of rubbish going to landfill and diverted 1900 tonnes of food scraps and other organics to be turned into compost. Knox Mayor, Marcia Timmers-Leitch said residents should feel proud of their resilience and ability to adapt to change so well. "In July, we more than doubled our food and green waste collection, sending 1,900 tonnes of food and garden material for processing into compost for our parks, gardens and farms," she said.
