Share you views in the survey on waste reduction and management in our community before 30 July 2018. It is a long-term vision setting out new targets and strategies for the next four years (2018-2022), and more ambitious goals for the longer term (2022-2028).Ĭouncil can’t do this alone! We need to work with our residents, businesses and visitors to be strategic in what we buy and how we reuse and recycle it. Our draft Waste Management Strategy – Don’t Waste It! – is a blueprint for how Council and the community can work together to achieve a sustainable reduction in waste and manage what is left over in the most sustainable way. Council is committed to meeting these challenges to reduce the impacts of waste on our community and the environment we enjoy. The next ten years will bring rapid population growth to the City of Port Phillip and significant changes to the waste industry. You can view the meeting minutes on our website. A staff member will set up a time to examine the condition of the containers and schedule a pick-up.Thank you for providing feedback, our final Waste Management Strategy was endorsed at the Ordinary Meeting of Council on 17 October 2018. For assistance with these sizes of containers, call 48 or email. The configuration of the drop off point does not provide an area where containers this size can be safely unloaded. The HPCC does not accept containers of any material in 30- or 55-gallon drums. Container's larger than 16-gallons pose unique problems for HPCC staff. The size of a container could limit its acceptability. Gas Cylinders other than Propane Other Items Not Accepted If the items are in poor condition, old or could present a hazard to public safety, telephone Tempe Fire Department (911). Please contact the HPCC at 48 to determine proper disposal options for the following dangerous items. Only HHW from residents of Tempe or Guadalupe will be accepted and proof of residency is required. Contact HPCC staff with questions.Ībsolutely no commercial or industrial waste will be accepted. Household Hazardous Waste must never be just thrown into a trash bag for disposal. If materials have spilled inside the bag and cannot be identified, a Hazardous Materials Response and clean-up may be required. Typically, residents place the items in the bag neatly, but through loading, transport and unloading the items get tossed about, damaged and/or spilled. Items that are co-mingled in a trash bag by a leak or spill can begin to react (Develop heat or Off Gas) and place staff as well as the resident in danger of injury. Items in garbage bags will not be accepted.īecause of recent incidents involving HPCC Staff and public safety, items that are delivered in trash bags (thrown into) may not be accepted. Proof of residency is required (current utility bill or Driver's License). No commercial or industrial hazardous waste is accepted. The HPCC only accepts Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) from Tempe and Guadalupe residents. Please contact the HPCC for information on other items not listed or other opportunities to have your items re-purposed or reused.Ĭardboard boxes will not be returned unless they are designed for use with the specific material transported in them to the HPCC.
