Avoiding waste, sustainably managing the waste that is generated and recovering resources from waste are important to our community and environment. So much so that the four SHOROC councils – Manly, Mosman, Pittwater and Warringah – have developed Too Good to Waste – a regional waste avoidance and resource recovery strategy.
Councils are working with the community to shape a future where waste is no longer a burden but a resource. The strategy looks ahead to 2021 with a vision to lead and support our community to avoid, reuse, recycle and recover valuable waste resources. Priorities and actions to 2017 are targeted on:
- Sustainable infrastructure solutions to maximise resource recovery
- Produce less waste
- Increase recycling
- Make disposal of problem wastes easier
- Keep public places clean

Ready for the future – sustainable infrastructure solutions to maximise resource recovery
Manly, Mosman, Pittwater and Warringah councils have a strong history of collaboration and are well placed for the future.
We are planning to introduce new regional resource recovery facilities and a new household waste collection service in the coming years. This regional waste solution is a major plank of this strategy and will enable the councils to sustainably manage the region’s household waste and recover its valuable resources for many years to come.
