Nearly 50% of this waste consists of organic matter such as food scraps and yard trimmings, can easily be used to create nutrient-rich compost right in your own home. Additionally, Council is offering a complimentary caddy to assist residents in their composting efforts. You can find out about composting here.

As residents, we all share a responsibility in managing the waste we generate. Making conscious choices to recycle and compost can significantly reduce our environmental impact and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable future for our community.

Join us in making Mount Isa a cleaner, greener place for all and promoting a circular economy where waste is repurposed and recycled into valuable resources like:

  • Glass from your home can be used in road construction.
  • Plastic can be transformed into fencing materials.
