Parkglen Retirement Village in Keysborough is the first aged care facility in Greater Dandenong to embrace Council’s new food and garden waste recycling service.
Council’s waste team recently visited Parkglen Retirement Village to take the residents through a waste education session on how best to dispose of their food and garden waste using their kitchen caddies and recycling bins. Parkglen is generating over 1000 litres of food waste per fortnight collected from the village’s kitchens and residents’ units.
Parkglen’s Community Manager, Peter Payne is committed to supporting residents to do all they can to protect our environment, regularly working with Council to responsibly dispose of general waste, food and green waste, e-waste and mattresses.
To book a waste education session for your community group email the waste team at wasteevents@cgd.vic.gov.au
