Waste Management
Waste Services
Garbage rooms are located in the hallways of each wing
Use garbage chutes for non-recyclable material, do not put large items down the chutes as they get stuck.
Place recyclable material in the yellow recycling bins, please flatten cardboard boxes.
Yellow recycling bins can only be used to recycle soft plastics by using special bags provided for free through the Curby soft plastics recycling program: https://www.curbyit.com/softplastics/.
Red and yellow bins are managed by the building cleaners.
Detailed information on what can be placed in recycling bins can be found on the council website: https://newcastle.nsw.gov.au/living/waste-and-recycling/collection-services/your-kerbside-waste-service/using-your-bins.
