Waste Facilities Operating Hours, Fees and Charges
***The Burrum Heads, Yengarie, Granville and Tinana waste facilities will close on 26 June 2023.
This decision will save ratepayers about $426,000 a year, ensure the remaining facilities operate more efficiently and increase our recycling efforts.
The changes will mean 97 per cent of residents will still be within a 20-minute drive and 99 per cent within a 30-minute drive of a waste facility.
All residents in the areas where the closures take effect will continue to receive a weekly waste and fortnightly recycling kerbside bin collection. ***
