ASBESTOS COLLECTION

MONDAY 22 MAY – FRIDAY 26 MAY

Council’s bi-annual residential asbestos collection program will run again from 22 to 26 May 2023.

Residents can dispose of a maximum 10 square metres of bonded asbestos materials (also known as ‘fibro’) at no cost. Please note that eligibility criteria apply, so check that your property is included and that the materials you have are eligible to be collected under this program.

Please call Council’s Customer Service team on 1300 36 2170 to register your interest, providing your name, contact and phone details, and e-mail address (if available), and the address of the property where the materials are located.

Alongside your yellow lid co-mingled recycling bins, we also offer other options for those difficult to recycle items. Our community recycling centre at the Rose St Depot is a drive through facility which is able to take a whole range of bulky and problem wastes for recycling such as paint, e-waste, clean polystyrene foam from packaging, household and vehicle batteries, household and vehicle oils, X-rays and smoke detectors. Additionally, we are always looking to expand the items we accept. Drive in and see our friendly team!

We have also brought back mini recycling stations into our local libraries. At these stations you can drop off X-rays, smoke detectors and small household e-waste items (no batteries) such as entertainment remotes, handheld radios, mp3 players and game console controllers.
