Waste vouchers help lighten the load this festive season

Published on 03 January 2023

Council has increased the number of free waste vouchers available to residents/ property owners for January and February to help the community dispose of extra waste generated over the summer holiday period.

Council has an electronic waste voucher system where each property is allocated one waste voucher per year. To help dispose of extra waste generated over the holiday period, we are issuing an extra 1000 vouchers over January and February.

Once a voucher is issued, residents have 30 days to take their waste to either the Lismore Recycling & Recovery Centre on Wyrallah Road, East Lismore or the Nimbin Transfer Station.

If you don’t use your voucher within the 30 days, it will expire and you can apply again another time.

We do ask residents to please sort as much of their waste as possible as it will be cheaper for you and allow us to recycle as many items as we can to keep them out of landfill.

To apply for a free waste voucher and for more information, go to https://northernriverswaste.com.au/electronic-waste-voucher-system or call us on 6625 0500.
