Food waste recycling is an effective way to reduce food waste going to landfill and greenhouse gas emissions.
Brisbane City Council has made it more affordable to get started on food waste recycling at home with their compost rebate program since 2020. This provides eligible Brisbane residents with a rebate of up to $200.00.
$200 - for the purchase of food waste dehydrator system or in-sink food disposal system made on or from 1 January 2024.

Food waste disposers are neatly installed under the kitchen sink and are activated via a push of a button. InSinkErator food waste disposers finely grind food waste and send them through existing plumbing systems to the same place toilet waste is treated. It is easy and safe to use as it grinds food without the use of blades and they are now quieter than ever. With an InSinkErator, most food scraps can go down your disposal unit. InSinkErator food waste disposers minimise the handling of food scraps, reduces time spent preparing and cleaning up after meals, helps eliminate bad smells, bacteria and insects from bins and reduces the amount of food in landfill which in turn reduces greenhouse gases.
