Protecting our environment, one collection at a time

Hygiene waste is one of the most overlooked waste streams in Australia. At CleanCycle in Melbourne, Victoria, we believe responsible waste management starts with source segregation and dedicated processing to keep our communities clean, safe, and sustainable.

Diverting hazardous hygiene waste from landfill

Standard landfills are not designed to safely handle the volume of sanitary and incontinence products produced daily. Nappies, pads, and tampons trapped in general waste create biohazards and take centuries to break down. By choosing CleanCycle, you directly divert this unwanted waste stream, easing pressure on Melbourne tips and cutting down long-term environmental risks.

Protecting our waterways and local soil

When hygiene waste ends up in red council bins or is improperly flushed, it poses a direct threat to local drainage networks, creeks, and rivers. We segregate the most difficult hygiene waste at the source and collect it using sealed, reusable containers and biodegradable liners, safeguarding our ecosystems from harmful run-off and microplastic contamination.

Our duty to responsible recycling and low emissions

Our duty extends beyond simple collection. CleanCycle operates with sustainable supplies, low-emission routing, and dedicated recycling partners who treat and recycle hygiene waste responsibly. We ensure materials are hygienically handled from your doorstep right through to end-of-life recovery, turning a difficult waste challenge into a cleaner future.
