Clean Up Every Day

Picking up rubbish for a day is a great first step, but if you really want to see a difference, then make Clean Up part of your everyday life. 

Simple things like recycling your household rubbish will all help us reach our goal of reducing our waste to landfill by up to 50 percent.  Even something as simple as reusing your empty ice-cream container for storage, makes a big difference.
