The Green Waste Processing Facility located in Canning Vale creates mulch from the clean green waste gathered by council verge collections. CLEAN GREEN WASTE is also accepted from residents and commercial operators who bring it to the RRRC on trailers (fees apply, see below).
The shredder at the facility can process over 30,000 tonnes of green waste per year. 100% of the Green Waste is recovered, with no residual waste going to landfill. By disposing of your Green Waste at the RRRC you’ll be helping to create a more sustainable future for the region.
