Sort and Save
Our centres have different charges for different materials.
- 1
Sort at home
- 2
Drop off to the right area
If a load is not sorted, it can be difficult to see what types of materials are in the load. Unsorted loads will either be rejected or charged at the general waste rate.
How to Sort your waste before leaving home
The Albury Waste Management Centre is divided into four drop-off areas.
To make your visit quick and hassle-free, we recommend that you load your trailer or vehicle by drop-off area.
For example, general waste items for the push pit (area 4) should go on the bottom, followed by green waste, then wood and building materials (area 3), any steel items (area 2) and lastly, load anything for the recycling centre (area 1) on top.

How it works
Disposing of your waste at the Albury Waste Management has never been easier. And with a series of weighbridges now in operation, you can make your way through the centre, recycling as you go and saving money as you exit.
