Residential Household Waste

The Council has replaced the Tip Passes with a new Household Waste Service, which has been designed to reduce waste, promote correct waste disposal and household clean-up. 

Under the new Household Waste Service, fees and charges are waived for all Shire residents. Tip Passes will no longer be required for household waste disposal at the Shire’s waste facilities:

  • Coolgardie Waste Facility; and
  • Kambalda Waste Transfer Station.

Residents will be able to make unlimited trips to the Shire’s waste facilities and deposit unlimited household waste.

The following table clarifies the waste categories that may be deposited for free and those for which there is a charge.

General Information

Before entering the Waste Facility, all users are required to stop and weigh as data needs to be captured for reporting and compliance purposes.

It is a condition of entry to the waste facilities that everyone follow directional and safety instructions from Shire staff. 

Refusal to follow all directional and safety instructions may result in denial of service.
