E-waste recycling now available

E-waste can be deposited for recycling in dedicated e-waste skip bins located at the Kingaroy, Murgon, Wondai and Nanango Waste Facilities.

The dedicated e-waste skip bins can accept the following items*:

• Televisions including Plasma televisions; Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) televisions; Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) televisions and Rear Projection televisions.
• Computer Equipment including portable processing machines (i.e. laptops, notebooks & palmtops); Desktops/Central Processing Units (CPUs); computer monitors; printers; multi-function devices that print, copy, scan and/or fax; cards & motherboards; web cameras; compact disk drives; digital video disk drives; hard drives; floppy drives; mouse & trackball; scanners; keyboards; joysticks & gamepads and electrical transformers designed to be housed in the same cabinet as the CPU.
• Small electrical items with a power source including power tools; kettles; microwaves; heaters; toasters and hair dryers.

Disposal of e-waste through Council’s regular waste collection service is not encouraged.

E-waste can often be difficult as they contain materials that require specialised recycling.

*Batteries are not recyclable through the e-waste recycling service. 

Why recycle?

Recycling is an important process which is vital to minimising the impact that we have on the environment by reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfill.

Sort it! Load it! Recycle it!

Ensuring that products that can be recycled are recycled.

Ensure that you sort your loads into recyclable materials and general waste before taking it to Council's waste facilities. This concept of waste separation prior to disposing at Council's waste facilities allows the opportunity of resource recovery and recycling. Alternatively, if you have some unwanted items (e.g. old bikes etc.) why not separate these items and drop off at the Kingaroy or Nanango Tip shop?
