The Brief
Our waste team created a waste minimisation focus in the Waste Management Plan developed for the Nightingale Anstey development.
Existing Nightingale Housing communities already manage their waste output better than most by:
Waste Management Plan
Ratio Waste Management Plan embedded Nightingale’s ethos into a tangible document that acts as both an education piece for the new community of residents and commercial tenants and a working plan for the owner’s corporation.
The Plan provided:
• Practical tips for reducing waste output by reusing and recycling valuable resources.
• A waste system that encourages users to sort their waste into general waste, mixed recyclables, paper and cardboard, soft plastics, organics, e-waste and hard waste, to divert waste from landfill and minimise waste collection costs.
• A cardboard baler that makes for easier cardboard recycling, saving space, collection costs and collection frequency.
• A smaller waste room footprint, reflective of Nightingale’s reduced waste outputs.
• A demonstration of how a small waste collection vehicle could gain access to the rear laneway network to collect the bins on collection days.
Delivery
Ratio’s Waste Management Plan was endorsed by Merri-bek City Council and the development is expected to be completed in early 2022.
We look forward to continuing our work with Nightingale Housing and other communities in developing waste minimisation strategies to reduce their waste-print on the environment.
