After extensive renovations, the Mission Beach Waste Transfer Station is back in full operation. To celebrate, the community is invited to join Council for a facility open day.

Mission Beach Transfer Station will hold its community open day on Saturday 5 November 2022, between 1:30pm – 3:30pm. The community is encouraged to come down for a look and enjoy a free sausage sizzle on the day. Enclosed shoes must be worn at all times when attending the facility.

Council team members will be on site to show interested community members around the upgraded facility and explain what services are now offered, including the new and improved recycling zones. A new tip shop has also been built however is currently not open. In line with Council‘s goal of reaching a recycling rate of 60% by 2025, Council will continue to offer the buyback shop as it is a great way to divert items from landfill. 

Portfolio Holder for Waste Management and Innovation, Councillor Teresa Millwood would like to congratulate the local contractor Alan Sultana Construction for their efforts during the upgrade and thank the Mission Beach community for their patience during these important works.
