Consultation has concluded
Project Information
We are interested in hearing from you and other people in your street about recycling food and other green organics waste. Your responses will help inform and explore future education programs and possible service innovations for residential waste and recycling collections.
Background
The City of Adelaide has received State Government support to engage with selected residents about food and green organics waste at home.
We know residents experience different waste and recycling challenges depending on their premise location, configuration, and size.
The City of Adelaide has a vision to be a zero avoidable waste to landfill city. To realise this vision the City has an action plan to reduce food waste generation and increase diversion of food scraps from landfill by 50 per cent.
Overall, we have planned to actively engage with between 60 – 80 households. Your responses will help inform future education programs and possible service innovations for residential kerbside waste and recycling collections.
Timeline
We are actively engaging with residents during June and July 2023, and we are making it easy for you to take part.

Online Contribute your feedback via the Online Survey. We expect that completing the survey should be 8 minutes or less.

What happens next?
Information collected will be de-identified, aggregated, and analysed for trends.
A report will be produced that is suitable for noting at a Council Meeting if required, and may be shared with state government body Green Industries SA.
The learnings will be used internally by Council to help inform and explore future education programs and possible service innovations for residential waste and recycling collections.
We may invite some participants to be involved in a 1.5hr focus group. Participants will receive an Adelaide Central Market voucher as recognition for their time.
Council will make available on YourSay a high-level summary of engagement results within 3 months of engagement activity.
