Campbelltown residents can now access a 50 percent rebate up to the value of $100 on reusable nappies and sanitary products.

The rebates are part of Campbelltown Council’s Plastic Free July promotions.

The rebate aims to encourage people to reduce the amount of waste that goes into landfill by choosing more sustainable options.

Currently, disposable nappies and sanitary products make up more than 10 percent of the weight of red-lid waste bins used by Campbelltown residents.

The rebate is available to be claimed for purchases throughout July.

“This incentive will make it easier and more affordable for people considering making the switch to sustainable products,” Mayor George Greiss said.

The rebate will be available for the following items:

Nappies – any reusable nappies such as fitted nappies, all in one nappies, all in two nappies, reusable night nappies, reusable swim nappies, terry towelling / pre-fold nappies, reusable nursing products, reusable wipes / liners, nappy wet-bags

Sanitary products – reusable menstrual pads and underwear, menstrual cups, reusable incontinence pads and underwear.

Terms and conditions and information on how to claim the rebate is available on Council’s website.
