Sustainable business
Waverley Council encourages businesses to reduce waste, conserve energy, and prevent litter pollution. Embedding sustainability into your business can reduce outgoing costs to make you more competitive. It can also improve your reputation while benefiting the environment.
For more information on ways small businesses can improve profitability through positive impact, see the recording of the Better Business Webinar (2022), hosted by Sarah Wilson.
-
Reduce waste in your business
Waverley Council has an ambitions target of 75% resource recovery of residential and commercial waste by 2020 in our Environmental Action Plan 2018- 2030 and in line with the NSW Waste and Resource Recovery Strategy 2014 - 2021
-
Optimise your waste and recycling management
Manage your waste and recycling with effective planning, storage and communication with staff to help reduce litter and pollution in our local area.
-
Reduce litter and dumping around your business
Bin too full? Overfull bins with popped up lids, or bagged rubbish outside of bins, can attract pests or vermin and contribute to windblown litter. Keep the excess waste for the next collection day or arrange to increase your service frequency to ensure all waste is containerised.
-
Save power and buy renewable energy
Businesses that rent and have good roofs for solar power can reap the benefits of cheaper renewable energy with the SunTenants program.
-
Save water in your business
How well do you know how to save water? For tips on how to save water and reduce costs in your business, visit our Water Saving at Work page.
-
Apply for grants and funding
Businesses in Waverley Council can apply for grant funding to be used for sustainability improvements, such as waste and recycling equipment
-
Source and sell sustainable products and services
Sustainable procurement considers the environmental, social and economic impacts of products purchased by a business.
-
Get involved with the community
Is your business looking for team building activities that do good for the environment and our community?
-
Plastic free businesses
Since 2016, we’ve been working to tackle the litter issue on our beaches and in our neighbourhoods by working with local businesses through our “Bondi Unwrapped” and “Unwrapping our Futures” programs.
Hello Bondi!
Find out more about businesses reducing their environmental impact at our most iconic beach.
