Price Changes

Depending on your service and location, from 1 July 2026, your waste and recycling charges may increase to reflect current operating costs, our continuing investment into sustainable, best-practice waste solutions, and the Government-mandated national Waste Disposal Levy price increase.

Explaining the Waste Disposal Levy and ETS

To encourage waste minimisation, the Government began increasing the Waste Disposal Levy from 2021. This means it is becoming more expensive to dispose of waste at landfill. Read how the Waste Disposal Levy and the Emissions Trading Schemes affect you.
