Agricultural waste

A blue tractor is driven through a field of crops.

Agricycle, a rural recycling program, helps manage waste from rural industries by providing a free drop-off for chemical drums and set quantities of chemicals, oil and oil filters.

Oil and oil filters

Used oil and oil filters are recycled, with up to 20L of oil from domestic sources accepted for free (fees apply for larger amounts and commercial quantities). Oil filters are crushed and the casing is recycled, with up to five filters accepted for free at a time (fees apply for larger volumes).

Farm drums

Both plastic and steel chemical drums of any size are collected and recycled. Drums must be triple rinsed and have lids removed, they will be inspected by Council staff prior to disposal.

Chemicals

Up to 20 litres/20 kilograms can be dropped off free of charge at any one time. Volumes over 20 litres/20 kilograms will be accepted but charges will apply at a per kilogram rate.
