The recycling drop off centre is being closed for public safety reasons.

The recycling drop off centre at the West Belconnen Resource Management Centre permanently closed on Thursday (1st February) ahead of future development, the ACT Government has said.

The West Belconnen Resource Management Centre will completely close in the next 12 to 24 months to facilitate the remediation of the site ahead of land release as part of the Ginninderry development.

The ACT Government said the recycling drop off centre (RDOC) is being closed for public safety including unsafe access and exit points.

The oil drop-off facility in West Belconnen also permanently closed on Thursday after being temporarily closed in September 2017.

Alternate oil drop-off facilities are available at the Mitchell Resource Management Centre on Flemington Road and the Mugga Lane Resource Management Centre on Mugga Lane.

The closest alternative RDOC is located on Jolly Street in Belconnen with additional RDOCs available at Baillieu Court in Mitchell, O’Brien Place in Gungahlin and the Mitchell Resource Management Centre on Flemington Road.
