Waste events

Council run events throughout the year, providing our community with the opportunity to recycle, repurpose and dispose of waste that can’t be removed in their bin service.

Some of these events include the:

Household bulky waste event – our award winning event where residents can drop off their unwanted items to our facility.

Second hand Saturday – a MASSIVE car-boot sale, held in Kiama twice a year.

NSW EPA Chemical Clean Out Collection – held once a year, this free event allows residents to safely dispose of potentially hazardous household chemicals.
