October 29th, 2024Free green waste disposal November

Hepburn Shire residents and property  owners can dispose of green waste for free at transfer stations in Daylesford,  Creswick and Trentham during November.

The council has issued a statement reminding locals that as the upcoming fire season approaches it’s important to take steps to prepare their property and stay safe, with more information at: www.cfa.vic.gov.au  online. 

For those planning to make use of the council’s free green waste disposal month this November, things to remember include:   

• Bring along some proof of residency.   

• Separate your load – green material should be separated from other items being brought in.   

• Noxious weeds should not be transported or brought to the transfer stations.   

• Excludes commercial quantities of waste.   

It is illegal to transport noxious weeds in Victoria and for the council’s transfer stations to accept them.

Those with noxious weeds to dispose of can check out the council’s Noxious Weed Guide at its local transfer stations, libraries, customer service centres, or visit www.hepburn.vic.gov.au/trees-vegetation.
