Waste & Recycling

Your Garbage Collection Service

Your annual Council Rates charge includes a Garbage Collection fee that Council provides a weekly wheelie bin collection service for residents to dispose of their household rubbish in Wilcannia, Ivanhoe, Menindee and the  Menindee Environs; a Domestic Waste Charge is also applied to vacant land.

Additional bins can be supplied but at the cost of the yearly charge.

Only waste stored in the bin will be removed on Collection Days. Council does, however, hold an annual Hard Rubbish Collection Day, free of charge, that allows residents to place larger items of white goods, tyres, sheets of iron etc out for removal.

Council has determined to discontinue to charge gate fees for it’s waste management facilities for domestic refuse. However, business, commercial and industrial waste will continue to attract fees for waste disposal at the waste management facilities. Please refer to the Operational Plan for Fees and Charges or contact the Engineering Dept on 08 80838800 to arrange access.

ABOUT US

Central Darling Shire is the largest Shire in NSW and yet has the smallest population. It covers an area about the size of the main island of Tasmania and yet has a population of less than 2,000 people. The Shire is extremely diverse with four main communities that are all different in their commerce, geography and cultures. Wilcannia, the administration centre of the Shire has a fascinating history of river heritage having once been the prime port for the shipping of wool for the entire western district of NSW. It has a large number of sandstone buildings and a rich indigenous culture.
