Wheelie bins and recycling are collected once a week and should be placed out on Wednesday nights for collection on Thursday mornings. Bins should not be removed from the premises to which they were delivered.
Recycling Services including a Recycling Centre at the town landfill site, are provided by Walcha Council. Council have prepared and issued to householders a “What Goes Where” (PDF) (544.75 KB) brochure. Also the pictures might help with what can be recycled in the dedicated wheelie bins:

These materials can be reused and recycled if processed correctly.
