Melton Recycling Facility (MRF)

Please be advised that the Melton Recycling Facility is temporarily closed until further notice due to a small fire that caused damage to the site. We expect the site will be able to reopen in some capacity later this week.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will provide updates on this page. 

The site has been cleaned and assessed. Repairs are being made to the site so that it can be reopened as soon as possible. At this time, we are unable to accept any waste.

If you have waste that needs to be disposed of urgently, you can visit one of the following sites:

The Melton Recycling Facility (the MRF) consists of three services all at the one convenient location:

• Permanent Drop-off Site (the Permanent Drop-off Site is where you can drop off items such as paint, batteries, engine oil, cardboard and more for free all year round - see more information about items that can be dropped of!).
  
  
• Resale Shop  (the Resale Shop is a reuse-and-recycle initiative that enables anyone to declutter their homes by donating household items that are in resaleable condition).

The Melton Recycling Facility is currently being upgraded and will remain open during construction. Only minor disruptions are expected however we apologise to residents for any inconvenience caused during this time. For further information, please visit the project page.
