Coffee Cup Recycling Trial, Melton

Melton City Council sought to implement a coffee cup recycling trial to illustrate how the Melton community can make a tangible and sustainable change during everyday activities.

Our circular economy team designed and implemented the trial, using ‘Simply Cups’ stations at 6 locations across Melton, coordinating with the various stakeholders on behalf of Council.

The Project

Paper cups, such as takeaway coffee cups, cannot be recycled in our standard recycling service due to their interior plastic lining.

Melton City Council engaged our team to design and implement a coffee cup recycling trial at 6 locations around Melton. The major change initiative aims to not only increase the recycling rates of these products but also demonstrate to community members how we can make a positive impact by implementing this change in our daily activities.

Simply Cups recycles all brands of paper cups including coffee cups, takeaway soft drink cups and ice-cream, into various useful products. These products include building materials, wheel stops, and fenceposts.
