Location: Bundall / Stapylton, Gold Coast

About ARRC Gold Coast The Advanced Resource Recovery Centre, or ARRC, is transforming how the Gold Coast manages its waste and turns it into value. Owned by the City of Gold Coast, this $1.6 billion precinct is set to become one of the world’s first planned waste and energy precincts, providing Gold Coast residents with a value-for-money and environmentally responsible way to manage the region’s waste. It will also divert up to 97% of the waste currently sent to landfill.

Progressively rolling out during the next six years, our initial focus is three integrated but distinct facilities: ARRC Organics, ARRC Recycling and ARRC Energy. The three facilities will process waste from the green, yellow and red bins. ARRC Organics in Yatala is already doing just that.

ARRC is also developing a circular economy innovation park, ARRC Innovation, and a community hub, ARRC Hub, as well as looking at opportunities to decarbonise the City’s vehicles through ARRC Hydrogen.

Creating jobs for more than 2,000 people during construction and 350 people during operation, ARRC is being designed from the ground up to achieve the very best circular economy outcomes for our region.

While ARRC’s corporate office is based in Bundall, the ARRC precinct is located primarily in Stapylton, the Gold Coast’s premier industrial precinct and a Queensland Government identified Recycling Enterprise Area.
