Waste vouchers
How to use your voucher
Each Maitland household receives one voucher per financial year that they can use to dispose of domestic waste free of charge. These are posted directly to your house in July each year.
To use your waste voucher:
- Waste must not exceed 400kg
- You must reside at the address the voucher was sent to
- Cannot be used for tyres
- Vouchers are not transferrable.
Replacement vouchers
Each waste voucher has a unique barcode that can only be scanned once. If you have lost your voucher or did not receive one, you can apply for a replacement voucher.
Concessions for charitable or not for profit organisations
If you’re part of a charitable or not for profit organisation, you can dispose of up to 20 tonnes of waste for free. Each charitable or not for profit organisation must have a valid Community Service Exemption from the NSW EPA.
Create an account at the Waste Facility
If you want to dispose of more than 20 tonnes, you must create a waste disposal account at the Waste Facility.
