Report abandoned supermarket trolley
Most Australians care for their beautiful country and would agree that abandoned supermarket trolleys are not just making streets and local surrounds look neglected, but also can become an environmental hazard to bushland, creeks and waterways.
Luckily, besides always returning the trolley to the supermarket’s trolley bay, there is a an easy way to contribute to neatness of Australia: report any abandoned trolley to the trolley collection service. It can be done very quickly online, and all you need to tell them is the name of the shop the trolley belongs to and the location of the trolley (providing your contact details is optional and only required if you want to receive a feedback or to participate in a prize draw).
I have the following links in my Web browser’s favourites and use them to report every trolley I see left outside any shop’s premises.

The reports are forwarded to collection teams around the country. The trolley collection teams retrieve the trolleys and return them to the relevant store. Reporting a trolley, which would otherwise have to be replaced, helps reduce waste and costs that otherwise would have been passed onto customers.
Thank you for your collaboration and for caring for our home—Australia.
