The Central Coast now has its first Community Recycling Centre (CRC), with householders dropping off their problem wastes for free at Council's Buttonderry Waste Management Facility in Jilliby.
The CRC has been established by us with the support of a NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Environmental Trust grant of $160,000. This expands on our popular Chemical Cleanout Events and other recycling initiatives across the Coast which make problem waste disposal easier for Central Coast residents.
Our community is passionate about closing the loop on waste and ensuring its safe and environmentally responsible disposal and we are proud to be able to actively find opportunities that help our community do this. We encourage everyone to make use of this great new, permanent facility.
The Central Coast CRC is located at 850 Hue Hue Road at Jilliby and is purpose-built for residential customers only.
It is open 7 days a week. The Central Coast CRC accepts the following problem wastes for free:
- water-based and oil-based paints
- used motor oils and other oils
- lead-acid and hand-held batteries
- gas cylinders and fire extinguishers
- conventional tube and compact fluorescent lamps and
- smoke detectors
