Waste Management

Approval must be obtained for disposal of Regulated Waste before disposal. Charges will be determined by
Council as part of the approval process.

For all loads of material that were initially accepted and charged as clean Construction and Demolition Waste
and subsequently suspected of being contaminated (e.g. asbestos), no refund will be applicable to the
customer who chooses to remove the load from site.

Green Waste – vegetation waste arising from maintenance of parks, gardens, and land, and not mixed with
other types of waste. Excludes processed timber and wood, putrescible wastes such as fruit and vegetable
produce and trunks of trees and plants with a diameter greater than 30cm.

Dead Animals Large - 24 hrs notice required prior to disposal.

Weighed transactions occur and disposal is charged on a unit rate per weight, when a vehicle and/or
attachment load is in excess of 500kgs. If a load of waste upon arrival is estimated be in excess of 500kgs,
but as a result of the weighing process found to be less, disposal charges shall be calculated using the
schematic schedule. Additional individual items charge also apply for nominated waste types e.g. tyres.

To be applied to cyclic type services (e.g. 8 or 12 weekly) and for when a resident requires an extra service
outside of and in addition to their scheduled frequency. Charge is for up to a including 5000 litres per service.
Excess litres (> 5000 litres) will be charged at the extra litres rate.

Volume transactions only (i.e. charging on volumetric quantity rather than weight) occur at sites without a
weighbridge, or if a weighbridge is unserviceable at the time of transaction. Additional individual items
charges also apply for nominated waste types e.g. tyres.

Weighed transaction occurs to commercial loads over 500kg. All other loads are to be treated as per the
schematic for the relevant vehicle size transporting the material.

Disposal charges under the schematic schedule i.e. small, medium and large are a guide only and not
intended to cover every possible vehicle configuration. The description of quantity is the basis for charging,
not the pictorials of vehicle configuration. Additional individual items charges also apply for nominated waste
types e.g. tyres.

Construction and Demolition Waste includes clean and mixed timber.

The State Government imposed Waste Levy applies to all waste that is disposed to landfill, this includes
General, Commercial and Regulated Waste. Accordingly, Council’s fees & charges incorporate this waste
levy where required.
