Carbon Collectors Preferred Contractor for Scenic Rim Regional Council

Carbon Collectors are proud to announce that we were recently awarded a 12 month contract after being chosen as the successful tender by Scenic Rim Regional Council. We are very pleased to have been chosen and look forward to building a strong working relationship, servicing the seven Waste Transfer Stations located throughout the Region. It’s fantastic to see another QLD Council taking the initiative to recover refrigerant from the End-of-Life equipment discarded by its’ Residents, although it’s nothing new for Scenic Rim Regional Council, having previously engaged a Contractor to carry out this work when required.

The Scenic Rim is a truly magnificent part of SE QLD as I recently discovered while driving around checking out all the Council Waste Transfer Stations, a region which has a fast growing population which ultimately means more waste to landfill, so it’s important that recycling is the first thing on everyone’s minds when it comes to discarding unwanted items. Although the overall number of End-of-Life appliances being discarded in the Region are not high at present in comparison to the GCCC, there is no doubt that the numbers will increase in-line with the population growth.

We believe it’s very important that all Local Councils Australia wide should be undertaking refrigerant recovery from End-of-Life Equipment discarded at their Waste Transfer Stations. Recovering these harmful polluting gases is a fantastic thing for our environment, besides the fact that it is illegal to knowingly discharge refrigerant gas from any type of refrigerated equipment, End-of-Life or not.
