Benalla Landfill and Resource Recovery Centre (Benalla Landfill)

Benalla Rural City's new transfer station is now open to the public and with the new facility comes a handful of changes. 

Domestic customers no longer uses the same entrance as the commercial and industrial customers. 

Instead of using the old entrance, patrons are asked to follow the recently sealed Old Farnley Road to the new Transfer Station. 

The upgraded facilities will allow the community to unload waste and recyclables from vehicles in a safer, easier and cleaner way. 

Customers will now be charged based on the volume and type of waste they dispose of, encouraging responsible segregation and recycling practices.

See the below table for the new fees and charges. Please note, charges are subject to change.
