Overview
Household or garden waste can be dropped off in-between waste collection days at any of the City’s 20 drop-off facilities.
Up to 1 300kg (1,3 tons) of non-hazardous waste may be disposed at any of these sites, at no cost. Green garden waste is then chipped and composted, while builder’s rubble is crushed for re-use.
Some drop-off sites also provide facilities for recycling of residential special waste such as tins, glass, paper, plastics, oil and electronic waste (such as old computers and cell phones). Waste that is not recyclable or re-useable is then transported to the landfill for disposal.
The Tygerdal drop-off facility accepts: Garage waste, clean garden waste, motor oil, cans and metal, paper, cardboard, glass bottle, plastic, e-waste, clean builders rubble, polystyrene and tetrapak.
The facility has recently acquired a chipping machine which is permanently on site. The machine facilitates the Solid Waste Department’s waste minimisation programme as garden refuse is reduced to smaller chips. These chips are used in the production of compost.
