Green waste was an ongoing issue for Cumberland Country Golf Club, resulting in $8,000 a year in waste removal costs. Energy Conservation provided support through the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Bin Trim program, and secured 50% funding for a shredder to turn ground waste into garden mulch. As well as cutting their waste bill they saved $16,500 in capital costs and now re-use around 38 tonnes of green waste every year that would otherwise go to landfill.
