Landfill issues

sue September 22nd, 2008

Just a quick update on works at the Maryborough Landfill. I expect that these works will mean a much improved outcome for all users. The following was in response to a resident enquiry but I thought it worth sharing.

“Council is not dumping recyclable material into the Landfill at any waste site.

There are some items that would normally have gone to the REST recoverable area that are reaching the landfill during the work that is happening at the Maryborough Landfill to construct an improved recycling drop off area and market sales shed which will dramatically reduce the amount of material going to landfill.

 There is an area that residents can drop off useable materials or recyclables whilst the work on site is happening. It is hoped that a new Recycling Tender and the construction of an under cover drop area and market sales building will be completed by 30 June 2009.

 Recycling bins are now available to Maryborough businesses, they should contact Maryborough customer service who will arrange a waste service officer to complete the necessary paperwork and have the bin/s delivered”.
