Please note, we do not currently provide a home collection service for organic (garden and food) waste.
We are investigating ways to best collect and process (recycle) food scraps and garden waste.
In the meantime we encourage home composting and worm farming, taking garden waste (not food waste) to the Castlemaine and Maldon transfer stations (fees apply) or utilsiing the free green waste disposal period from October to December.
Great tips and tricks on composting and setting up a worm farm. Also learn about local community composting group, Yes In My Backyard (YIMBY).
