Residents are encouraged to dispose of waste responsibly and reduce landfill usage.

By ensuring all waste is sorted correctly into the designated bins, including recycling and glass, you are assisting to reduce waste being transported to landfill.

Recycling facilities are available at all transfer stations, and glass recycling is also available at drop-off points in Antwerp, Kiata, Netherby, and Yanac.

Transfer stations may close on extreme heat days, with closures communicated via the Council’s social media and website.
