containers for change partnership
In 2024, the Corporation partnered with Containers for Change to deliver convenient recycling options across the precinct. This partnership saw the introduction of Queensland’s first Smart Bins, enabling visitors and locals to easily recycle their containers, with all 10-cent refunds reinvested into sustainability projects within South Bank.
The Corporation continues to invest in innovative waste management solutions that reduce landfill, encourage community participation and support Queensland’s circular economy.
