Redland City Council is making it easier and more affordable for residents to embrace sustainable living by introducing a new subsidy on compost bins.
This initiative allows residents to purchase Compost Revolution products, including compost bins, worm farms, and bokashi bins, at up to 80% off the Recommended Retail Price (RRP).

- Divert up to half your waste from landfills: Reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills.
- Lower methane emissions: By composting, you help reduce harmful greenhouse gases produced by decomposing organic waste in landfills.

- Engage in a fun, educational activity with children: Teach kids about the environment through hands-on composting activities.
