Trashless Takeaway

We enjoy great food, but it's disappointing when it comes in a white foam container - or other non-recyclable plastic that will end up in the bin.

Australians generate 107 kg of plastic waste per person - and only 14% gets recycled. The rest goes to landfill or ends up in the ocean.

Trashless Takeaway shows you the shops that accept reusable containers for takeaway food. You may even get a discount.

Ways to help trashless take off:

• Support the places that are help reduce plastic pollution
• Add #trashlesstakeaway to your photo of your trashless meal
• Ask your favourite place if they accept reusable containers
• Add them to the map if they they do

Apart from saving the planet, this can be healthier, cheaper and yummier. Business can also save money and get more exposure.

PS. For coffee shops, there's a similar site called Responsible Cafes.
