WARATAH-WYNYARD COUNCIL WASTE SURVEY

Council has developed a Waste and Resource Recovery Strategy for 2019-24, which is laying the direction for the next five years and beyond.

The Strategy is a commitment to achieving a 50% diversion of waste from landfill by 2024 and the continuous improvement in the way Council manages waste generated within the community. To be in the best position to meet this goal, Council must introduce progressive ways to minimise waste to landfill through targeted activities, education and advocacy programs.

Currently, there are two main waste services provided to the community. This includes a kerbside waste and recycling collection service to urban areas. The cost of this is levied to properties who receive this service and for 2018/19 the fee is $220 per household per year. Additionally, all properties within Waratah-Wynyard pay a Waste Utility Charge of $100 per year to cover the costs of running the Waste Transfer Stations.

The Waratah-Wynyard Council invites you to complete the waste survey and help us explore ways to improve the services and facilities provided to the community, as well as provide ideas and suggestions for how to plan for the future.
