Waste Depots (Landfills/Tips)

Three waste depots (landfills) are available in our Council area. These are at Coleambally, Darlington Point and Jerilderie. We also have a Common Tip at Jerilderie, for larger non-household building or farming waste.

The open pit method of disposal is used at each of our facilities, with fencing to control litter. The landfills have set opening hours and are closed at all other times, unless access is specially arranged.
