Event bins

Council has 10 x 240lt bins and 2 x 240lt organic bins available for event use.

Event organisers can use these bins for no charge if they agree to collect and return them. They are available for collection from the Castlemaine Civic Centre.

Once the bins have been used the event organiser can then transport them to the Castlemaine or Maldon Waste Facility for emptying. This does incur a fee.

Correctly sorted bins will be charged at the following:

· Commingled recycling – no cost*

*Must contain only recyclable material, contaminated bins will be charged as per disposal of general waste fees.

· General waste - $10 per 240lt bin

· Organic bins can be emptied at compost or worm farms*.

*Depending on the amount of organic waste you have this could be done at the worm farm located in the Community Garden (back of Community House building), this would need to be organised with the Community House prior to the event.
