Mitchell Shire is aiming to divert 80% of waste from landfill by 2030 and their new resource recovery centre will help make that dream a reality.
Opening next week, the $8 million facility in Seymour has been designed to make it easier to recycle domestic hard waste, reflecting the council’s priorities of reuse and recovery as we transition to a circular economy.
Mitchell Shire’s Environment and Sustainability Manager Narelle Liepa says the new centre will help change the way people perceive waste disposal.
“It’s traditionally been out of sight, out of mind,” Narelle says.
“Transfer stations are seen as smelly, dirty places and if you visit our new centre you’ll see that’s not the case.
