From 1 July 2018, lightweight single-use plastic bags will be banned statewide in Western Australia, which are usually available in large and small supermarkets such as Coles, Woolworths and IGA. The law, however, allows the use of tote bags (non-woven, cotton or canvas based material) as a substitute to the single-use plastic bags.
