E-waste and hard waste
Hard waste is the non-degradable waste that is too large to fit into a garbage bin. It includes whitegoods, furniture, household appliances, metals, wood and old car parts and tools.
The City does not offer a hard waste collection service to residents. You can take hard waste to the Eaglehawk Eco-Centre, Heathcote Transfer Station, Goornong Transfer Station or Strathfieldsaye Transfer Station.
