Waste levy exemption for storm affected residents

On display until 28 February 2025, 04:00 PM

The NSW Environment Protection Authority has advised they are waiving the waste levy over the period 15 January 2025 through 28 February 2025 for waste arising as a result of recent storms.
 

This means that at the Cessnock Waste Management Centre, green waste and recyclable storm generated materials will be free to drop off and the cost per tonne of mixed waste will be reduced by the levy amount.

Residents can drop off items at the Cessnock Waste Management Centre on Old Maitland Rd during operating hours (8.45am-4.30pm daily).
