Tips for a Post-Festival Cleanup

Music and arts festivals are responsible for tons of waste, every year.

 

Often, enormous amounts of rubbish are simply left for the organisers to clean up. This debris includes plastic, clothing, tents, aluminium, food waste and much more.

 

Thankfully, festival managers are becoming more aware of the problem, and are taking some steps to combat this issue.

 

To aid that, here are some tips to make your post-festival cleanup a little easier.

 

Spread the Word

 

Arguably most essential part of managing your festival waste is communication.

 

It’s imperative that before, during and at the end of the festival, you maintain constant dialogue with your attendees about disposing of their rubbish responsibly.

 

When this message sinks in, your festival audience will be more attentive to waste disposal. That means a higher volume of waste will be recycled, and disposed of responsibly.

 

Moreover, when people are disposing of rubbish correctly, there’ll inevitably be less time and money spent cleaning up afterwards.

 

Hire a Waste Removal Contractor

 

A professional rubbish removal contractor like Sydney City Rubbish will make your festival cleanup much smoother and more thorough.

 

Furthermore, with our efficient practices and experience in removing all sorts of waste, it can end up being more cost-effective.

Skip Bags

 

Our skip bags present a versatile option for waste removal, and are perfect for cleaning up a festival ground.

 

Before they become too heavy with waste, skip bags are easy to move around, as opposed to skips, which remain in the one place.

 

Moreover, they aren’t a sacrifice on durability.

 

For instance, skip bags can carry all kinds of waste, and the plastic weave that makes these items is extremely tough.

 

Separate Waste

 

Waste separation is a strategy that can make rubbish disposal far easier, in a variety of instances.

 

By having revelers separate their waste as they dispose of items, it saves plenty of time and ensures more waste is disposed of properly.

 

For example, placing recyclable plastics in one pile or receptacle, tents in another and food waste in another, makes it easier to recycle waste afterwards.
