Council's waste management program includes kerbside collections, transfer stations, public place waste management, and community education. Over 4,000 tonnes of municipal waste and 1,200 tonnes of recycling are processed from residential kerbside bins, public litter bins and transfer stations across the Shire each year.
To find out about specific services such as kerbside waste and recycling, transfer stations, or ordering new bins see our bins, recycling and waste section.
