HOW SIMPLY CUPS WORKS
To protect the integrity of the program, Simply Cups only collects cups from cup collection units with Simply Cups branding.
STEP 1: SET UP YOUR CUP COLLECTION UNITS
Every collection point needs a dedicated Cup Collection Unit, and we have a range of units to suit your space.
Prices below exclude GST and Freight, and discounts may apply for larger orders, and custom branding is available for an extra charge.
HELP US DIVERT MILLIONS OF
CUPS FROM LANDFILL
Simply Cups Australia is a program that helps businesses separate their takeaway cups from other waste streams. We collect those cups, and work with innovative new technologies to transform used cups into items of higher value.

STEP 2: COLLECT & EMPTY CUPS
Every collection unit comes with see-through sleeves or bag liners. When the collection unit is ready to be emptied, just tie off the sleeve or bag, then place the used cups into a dedicated Simply Cups 240L or 660L bin for collection (located back-of-house). This task is usually performed by your cleaner, or somebody from your office.
Tube sleeve fits between 40-60 cups if stacked correctly.
STEP 3: WE PICK UP THE CUPS
All cup sleeves need to be put into your dedicated Simply Cups 240L or 660L bin for collection.
When you sign up for Simply Cups, we will organise a collection day and frequency that matches your needs.
Collection charges depend on bin size, location, and frequency of collection.

STEP 4. PROCESSING THE CUPS
Simply Cups works with innovators to transform used paper cups into items of higher value. Different products are made using different technologies, and technologies mix paper cups with other recycled materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. The video below shows examples of what can be made today, including bench seats, roadside kerbing and car park wheel stops.
STEP 5. MONITOR FOR SUCCESS
We will provide you with a Monthly Report that tells you how many cups your site has diverted from landfill. We recommend you use this report to make sure Simply Cups is working for you.
