The plan aligns with the Queensland Waste Management and Resource Recovery Strategy, and incorporates the Queensland Government's targets for 2050 of 25% reduction in household waste, 90% of waste recovered and not going to landfill, and 75% recycling rates across all waste types.

Please note: An updated Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan is currently under development.
