Waste Management Options for Holiday Homes

The school holidays are a fantastic time to relax, explore our stunning region and spend quality time with family and friends. But, with the extra visitors comes extra rubbish and that can quickly become a challenge if not planned for.

Whether you’re managing a holiday rental or simply hosting a full house, it’s important to think ahead about how you’ll manage the additional waste.

To make things easier, we’ve created a handy two-page flyer that outlines practical waste management options for holiday homes and large groups. It’s packed with helpful information, including:

  • How to set up clear and effective waste sorting stations for your guests.
  • Tips for encouraging better recycling and food waste separation.
  • Options for ordering additional bins or arranging extra collections.
  • Details about local waste depots, recycling centres, and drop-off options for excess waste.

Why It Matters

Holiday home owners and group hosts play a vital role in supporting our region’s waste management efforts. During busy periods, waste volumes can exceed the capacity of the standard residential collection service. It’s up to property owners and managers to plan for this and make use of the available services to keep our region clean and sustainable.

A little forward planning:

  • Helps your guests dispose of their waste correctly.
  • Reduces the risk of overflowing bins.
  • Keeps your property looking its best.
  • Supports our shared commitment to protecting the environment.
