MidCoast Council

Save the Date: 15 November is Open Day at Tuncurry Waste Management Centre.

The community will have the opportunity to understand how waste is managed in the MidCoast at an open day to be held at Tuncurry Waste Management Centre on 15 November.

The open day is organised by MidCoast Council as part of National Recycling Week 2023. The theme this year is “What Goes Around, Comes Around.”

Attendees will have a chance to have their recycling questions answered in person, attend a free workshop and get a behind-the-scenes tour of the Community Recycling Centre, the Reviva reuse shop, the Waste Transfer Station, Return and Earn, Green Bikes and the Men’s Shed.

“What goes in your bin matters,” said Mr David Rees, Manager of MidCoast Council’s Waste Services.

“Getting it right means we can maximise the amount of recycling we can do here on the MidCoast and reduce the amount of waste we send to landfill.”

“During National Recycling Week, and every week, we want you to reduce, reuse and recycle better. It’s important to see waste as a resource to keep the materials in circulation for as long as possible,” added Mr Rees.

The free open day runs from 9am to 3 pm at Tuncurry Waste Management Centre.

The King and Queen of Green will entertain us and show how we can make positive changes to benefit the planet.
