Sustainable Events Program

Shaping a new era of sustainable events

Our Sustainable Events Program (SEP) combines cleaning, waste management and on-site sorting into one plan, so your event cuts landfill without slowing anyone down. It's designed to reach landfill diversion of 95% or more, and every event finishes with a report on what was collected and where it went.

Read the event cleaning checklist

The events we look after

  • Festivals and outdoor events

    On foreshores, in parks and in open public spaces

  • Food, wine and drink events

    Where serviceware, food scraps and cooking oil need their own plan

  • Sporting events

    With servicing during play and a reset once it's over

  • Pub, bar and club events

    And functions in hospitality venues

  • Corporate, community and civic events

  • Recurring events and series

    With the same team each time

Perth's long, dry summer packs the local calendar with outdoor events, and footy and cricket keep stadiums busy for much of the year. Popular weekends book out fast, so get in touch early.

For sporting venues, see our match-day stadium cleaning guide.

Amenities and toilets

We can run roving amenity servicing, place attendants at the busiest toilet blocks, or combine both.

Event waste and recycling in Perth

Venues and event approvals increasingly ask for a waste plan, and plenty of organisers now set their own diversion targets. We work out the streams you need (general waste, recycling, organics, cardboard, containers and cooking oil), confirm what each processor will take, keep the streams clean while the event runs and report the numbers afterwards.

In WA, eligible drink containers can be returned for a refund through Containers for Change. If your event sells a lot of drinks, a separate containers stream is worth planning.

Our biggest waste result so far came from a major food and culture event, where about 160,000 visitors came through and 20 restaurants traded. New Era handled the back-of-house waste. Across the verified reporting scope, 16.432 tonnes of waste went to recovery, for 100% landfill diversion.

We bring the same planning and the same reporting to Perth events.

A tip from our event work: not every organics processor accepts "compostable" plates or bamboo cutlery. Confirm it before vendors place their orders. How to plan event waste

Perth events: what we plan for

Perth's long, dry summer packs the calendar with outdoor festivals, foreshore events and sport. Heat and wind shape our plan: covered bins, wind-proof waste stations, fast litter control and shaded rest breaks for staff. WA's Containers for Change scheme makes a separate containers stream worthwhile at drink-heavy events.
