Waste from meals in managed isolation. "It feels really confronting when you go into managed isolation and it's very, very excessive amounts of packaging." The waste from managed isolation hotels joins thousands of tonnes of recyclable products already diverted to landfills by councils at alert levels 3 and 4. A managed isolation spokesperson said systems and processes were always being reviewed, to ensure hotels reduce waste where possible. With no knowing how long managed isolation hotels will be operating, concerned guests hope a more sustainable system can be introduced soon.
