Community Recycling Centre

Community Recycling Centre’s (CRCs) are NSW Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) funded permanent drop-off centres for common household problem waste that cannot be disposed of via Council’s kerbside general waste, recycling or garden organics collection services.

A Community Recycling Centre (CRC) operates at the Hawkesbury City Waste Management Facility. This is a FREE service to help residents safely dispose of household problem waste, and is available year round.

Many of the materials accepted by CRCs can be reused and recycled if processed correctly. Recycling helps our environment because it saves water, energy and natural resources.

For more information about the Community Recycling Centre and what you can take here, please refer to the Hawkesbury City Waste Management Facility.
