WasteSMART Brisbane Awards

Recognising individuals and groups going above and beyond for our environment, helping to make Brisbane a clean and sustainable city.

About the program

Brisbane City Council’s WasteSMART Brisbane Awards recognise the achievements of residents, community groups, schools, kindergartens and businesses going above and beyond to help make Brisbane a clean and sustainable city.

The WasteSMART Brisbane Awards began in 2020 to align with Council’s Waste Smart strategy for the city. Each year, Council partners with Brisbane Sustainability Agency to deliver the annual awards, culminating in an Awards Ceremony and celebration at City Hall in November.

Voting for the 2024 WasteSMART People’s Choice Award is now open. See the full list of finalists here and make your vote count.  

The Awards

This year there are 11 award categories, 12 awards and a prize pool worth over $4000.
