Disposal fees

All Council facilities no longer require mask wearing or proof of vaccination for entry. COVID-19 Safe check in (QR Code) is still required for entry.  

We have decided to continue check in requirements for now due to the high volume nature of our facilities and local case numbers.  

Despite the easing restrictions, please don’t attend our facilities if you are feeling unwell. 

This page includes the charges for disposing of waste at the Mount Vincent Road Waste Management Centre. 

Make sure to check what your are planning to dispose isn't prohibited.

Mount Vincent Waste Management Centre will no longer accept cash payments.
