Bundle Waste
Plan greenhouse waste around crop residues, growing media, pots, irrigation liquids and chemical containers. Keep diseased or chemically affected material identifiable before agreeing reuse or composting.
Information to gather
- Record the crop, treatments and contaminants associated with discarded material.
- Ask a receiver whether it accepts the particular substrate, pots and films.
- Check the site's controls and approvals before planning on-site composting or liquid disposal.
What to check before deciding
Do not describe on-site composting as automatically cheapest or suitable. Account for space, runoff, odour, plant-health issues and handling costs; get specialist advice where disease or chemical contamination is involved.
Victorian industrial waste must be classified and sent to a lawful receiving place. See EPA Victoria - Understand your waste obligations and duties.
