Community Recycling Centres have been designed to collect and appropriately dispose of household problem waste items. There are five locations in the Port Macquarie Hastings region where you can drop off your problem waste.
The video below is one of five videos that encourage the use of our local Community Recycling Centres (CRCs) focusing on one of the many types of waste that you can DROP OFF FOR FREE! You can drop off old household batteries and car batteries to be recycled safely and keep hazardous materials out of landfill!

- Batteries in our bins or in landfill are dangerous and detrimental to the environment.
- Batteries dropped at the CRC are collected and processed in Australia.
