Before looking to dispose of items, please think how you could reduce the amount of waste you are creating or could you (or a friend, neighbour or family members) reuse items instead of throwing them away? Many items can be repaired either by yourself or a professional, for example Remote Equipment Repairs, or traded on websites such as Rosella Street.
For information about our recycling and waste services please view our residential waste and recycling guide.
Please remember, if you cannot find an item listed, or need further information, please contact Council’s Waste Education Team on wastewise@wyndham.vic.gov.au or 1300 023 411.
