What waste management does a Melbourne rock climbing gym with cafe need?

Manage the cafe and climbing floor as separate sources before combining their collections. The cafe's contribution should be measured rather than assumed to dominate the gym.

Manage the cafe and climbing floor as separate sources before combining their collections. The cafe's contribution should be measured rather than assumed to dominate the gym.

What to check

  1. Record kitchen scraps and dining-area packaging separately from climbing consumables.
  2. Confirm kitchen-organics acceptance and storage with the receiving service.
  3. Keep holds, pads and retired safety equipment out of cafe streams and arrange their assessment separately.
  4. Use observation at peak classes and meal periods to choose locations, capacity and cleaning responsibilities.
