Tip Information

We operate four transfer stations for ratepayers and residents, not for commercial operators.

You can deposit up to a maximum of 3 cubic metres of rubbish at our transfer stations. Disposal fees vary depending on the type and quantity of rubbish you are disposing of.

Payments must be made in CASH to the attendant.

There is no provision for cheques, EFTPOS or credit cards at the transfer stations. For directions to each of our transfer stations click on the links.

Costs can be reduced significantly by separating your recyclables from other waste. Most recyclable waste can be deposited free of charge (except green organics). 

Transfer stations do not accept bricks, concrete and soil.

Please secure your load before visiting our transfer stations. A penalty under the Environment Protection Act 1970 will apply for litter generated from your vehicle.

Disposable Items

Paint tins (but not chemical containers) are accepted at each of our transfer stations at very nominal fees; oils and batteries, and fridges and air conditioners are accepted free of charge. A nominal fee is charged for commercial paper and cardboard.

A list of items that can be recycled and deposited free of charge at the transfer stations is included in our Disposal Information leaflet 2012-2013.
