Waxed Cardboard

Waxed cardboard boxes are often used for transporting fresh produce. Because of the wax coating they are unsuitable for recycling through the yellow bin system. Waxed cardboard should be placed in the red general waste bin. Alternatively if you have a compost bin at home it can also be composted.

Whitegoods

Whitegoods should not be disposed of in any domestic kerbside bins. They are generally composed of valuable metals and plastics which can be recovered if disposed of if returned to one of Lithgow's landfill facilities. For more information on these facilities including opening hours visit our landfills information page. Whitegoods cannot be disposed of at any of Lithgow's Transfer Stations.
