Waste Management Notice

WASTE FACILITY SAFETY PROTOCOLS

The operation of our waste facilities (Manjimup Recycling & Refuse Centre and the transfer stations at Northcliffe, Pemberton & Walpole) is essential to the public health of all people in the Shire of Manjimup.

As the COVID-19 situation develops it may be necessary to temporarily reduce some of the services each facility usually provides, in order to protect and maintain the highest priority functions of each site. Such measures will be unavoidable, but will be implemented in stages and according to contingency plans. You can assist in the ongoing protection of our waste facility services.

IF YOU VISIT A WASTE FACILITY YOU ARE REQUIRED TO:
First question yourself honestly as to whether or not your visit is essential - if it is not, then do not go;
Prepare your waste so that it can be disposed quickly and efficiently;
Present the correct money if paying by cash; and
Follow all instruction regarding separation distances, careful coughing and hand hygiene.

If you have any concerns regarding our waste facilities, telephone the Shire of Manjimup (08) 9771 7777 and ask to speak with the Waste Management Officer.

This notice remains in effect until the end of the COVID-19 pandemic or until subsequent notices instruct otherwise, whichever occurs first.
