Every week, the contents of red bins from 58,000 Shoalhaven households are sent to landfill at the West Nowra Recycling and Waste Depot. Find out how your Council manages a modern waste facility and how we are utilising innovative technologies to recycle materials once considered ‘unrecyclable’.
Seeing first-hand the massive task of disposing of our waste is a highly memorable lesson about environmental impact and shared responsibility.
