Please note processing of recycling is half the fee of refuse disposal.

A number of recycling business operate in Tasmania for information about these businesses including contact details and by type of material they collect can be found in the Recycling Near You Directory.

There are two main landfill sites licensed to take Controled or non-acceptable waste. These are Port Latta in the North West and Dulverton in the North. In the south the Hobart City Council site at McRobies Gully can take limited Controlled Waste such as some medical waste and quarantine waste. In the north, the Launceston City Council at Remount Road can take small and limited quantities of Controlled Waste.

It is always wise to contact the Waste Management Officers at the Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment to ask their advise before you dispose of any Controlled Waste or if you are unsure if your waste is considered 'Controlled Waste' or not....
