Trolley tracking still high on Clean Up Wangaratta’s agenda

CLEAN Up Wangaratta (CUW) continue to endorse the reporting of littered trolleys among the community in the lead up to World Cleanup Day on September 20. Since 2018, World Cleanup Day aims to unify volunteers and partners worldwide come together, to raise awareness of global mismanaged waste. CUW will take part in small clean ups around the CBD and some of the city’s roads, According to Rural City of Wangaratta Council’s website, shopping trolleys not returned to their owners are considered litter and can be a hazard to pedestrians, have an environmental impact on drains and waterways and make for an uneasy sight in our parks and reserves. CUW and council recommended the use of the Snap, Send, Solve app, which enables anyone to report an abandoned trolley by taking a photo and sending it to the relevant authority, or council. The app does not require a phone call or email. An alternative app includes Trolley Tracker which is compatible with Woolworths, Big W and Dan Murphy’s trolleys. “They’re the most valuable apps which everybody should have on their phone,” CUW co-convenor Andy Kimber said. Once an abandoned trolley is reported, the relevant organisation will look into the report and notify the user when the trolley returns home. For all other retailers, council recommends getting in touch with them directly.
