What waste management does a Melbourne car park operator need?

Review patron litter, maintenance residues and electrical replacements separately at a car park. A small general-waste bin does not cover every material arising from maintenance.

What to check

1. Position patron bins according to observed litter and pedestrian movement without obstructing access.
2. Ask the maintenance contractor how lamps, sensors and other electrical items are removed and recorded.
3. Plan the assessment and collection of spill cleanup or drainage-system residues from their composition; do not assume they are ordinary rubbish.
4. Agree site access and responsibility for unusual dumped items before promising routine collection.
