West Wimmera Shire Council - Recycling Audit Report

Wimmera Mallee Waste Management on behalf of the West Wimmera Shire Council, conducted an audit of glass and co-mingle recycling across the shire during November 2024. This audit was aimed at identifying community recycling trends and how effectively residents are using their recycling services.

Medical waste assistance scheme

West Wimmera Shire Council offers a medical waste assistance scheme to support residents managing additional household waste due to home-based medical treatments.

The scheme assists people undergoing treatments such as dialysis or chemotherapy, which can produce large volumes of non-hazardous waste like dialysis solution bags, tubing, packaging and gloves.
