Reminder of upcoming changes to our local dumps! Starts tomorrow!
♻️ Updates to mainland Recycling and Waste Centre services from 6 October
Did you know our Recycling and Waste Centres are funded through the waste utility charge, with all households contributing the same amount regardless of how often the centres are used?
To help keep things as fair as possible whilst managing rising waste costs, residential waste disposal allowances and fees will soon commence.
📅 Commencing 6 October
✅ 12 free visits for green waste and landfill (mixed waste), per vehicle, per financial year.
✅ Fees for waste streams that are more expensive to process, including bricks and concrete, clean soil, timber, mattresses and tyres.
✅ Many items remain free at all times, including recyclables such as cardboard and scrap metal, as well as e-waste, hazardous waste, chemicals and asbestos.
👍 For most residents, there will be little or no impact. Nine out of 10 vehicles currently visit fewer than 12 times each year for landfill or green waste disposal.
🏝️ There are no changes to Island Recycling and Waste Centres.
