Say goodbye to single-use plastics


Say goodbye to single-use plastics

The NSW Government is committed to reducing plastic litter across our state.

From 1 November these single-use plastic items will be banned:

  • straws, stirrers, cutlery, plates and bowls
  • expanded polystyrene food service items including clamshell containers, cups, plates and bowls
  • plastic cotton buds
  • personal care products containing plastic microbeads.

This means that from Tuesday 1 November, these items can no longer be supplied.
