NSW Businesses: Reduce Food Waste and Costs with SoilFood™ and Bin Trim Rebates
Businesses across New South Wales (NSW) now have a fantastic opportunity to improve their waste management practices through the NSW Bin Trim Equipment Rebates Program.
With $6 million in funding available over the next three years, this initiative offers substantial financial support to businesses aiming to reduce waste, increase recycling efforts, and boost operational efficiency.
Rebates of up to $50,000 are available, covering up to 50% of the cost of eligible small-scale, on-site recycling equipment or technology.
Understanding the NSW Bin Trim Equipment Rebates Program
The NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has introduced the Bin Trim Equipment Rebates Program to assist businesses in their pursuit of sustainable waste management. This program encourages businesses, including registered charities, not-for-profits, public entities, and government organisations, to adopt innovative waste reduction and recycling solutions. The goals are clear:
Minimise waste generation.
Maximise recycling efforts.
Implement cost-effective waste management solutions.
