Acceptable green waste includes:

  • Branches

  • Weeds

Outside of these dates, residents can use their waste vouchers or register for Council’s green waste recycling service.

Free hazardous waste drop-off

Do you need to get rid of any bleach, garden or pool chemicals or cleaning solvents?

Council has organised a free hazardous waste drop-off day on September 3 at the Chandler Resource Recovery Centre.

This helps keep our waterways clear of harmful chemicals that may end up in the ecosystem.
