Dear Moore Park Gardens Residents,

As part of our commitment to a cleaner and greener community, we’re excited to share the latest waste disposal initiatives from the City of Sydney. Proper waste management is crucial to protecting our environment and ensuring our neighborhood remains a beautiful place to live. Here’s how you can safely dispose of household waste in 2025:

1. Recycle It Saturday – Convenient Drop-Off for Hard-to-Recycle Items

Have items that don’t belong in your regular kerbside bins or the designated Bulk Waste Area? The City of Sydney offers a drive-through recycling event for residents to drop off various household waste materials, including:

  • Electronics (TVs, laptops, mobile phones)
  • Unusable clothing and textiles
  • Small metal items
  • Bicycles
  • Polystyrene packaging
  • X-ray scans and more!

2025 Event Dates:

  • Saturday, 22 February
  • Saturday, 24 May
  • Saturday, 23 August
  • Saturday, 22 November

Time: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM

2. Household Chemical CleanOut – Safe Disposal of Hazardous Waste

Do you have leftover paint, chemicals, or old gas bottles at home? Unfortunately, these items are not permitted in the Bulk Waste Areas in Moore Park Gardens, therefore you will need to dispose of them safely at the Household Chemical CleanOut. Items accepted include:

  • Solvents and paints
  • Pesticides and herbicides
  • Motor oils and fuels
  • Car batteries
  • Gas bottles
  • Household cleaners

Upcoming Event: The 2025 date is yet to be confirmed. In the meantime, check for alternative drop-off locations via the NSW Environment Line at 131 555.

3. Bulk Waste Disposal – Designated Areas for Residents

To make waste disposal even more convenient, Moore Park Gardens provides designated bulk waste areas in each carpark, open to all residents from Friday to Monday. Building management organises weekly bulk waste pickups, including large household goods such as:

  • Furniture
  • Mattresses
  • Whitegoods
  • Other large unwanted items

Please ensure all bulk waste is placed in the designated areas during the open period and avoid leaving items outside of these times as they can cause trip hazards and safety risks. This helps keep our community clean and organised.

For any questions or assistance with bulk waste disposal, or where to find your buildings area, please contact Building Management.

4. Australian Waste & Recycling Expo (AWRE) 2025

If you’re interested in learning about the latest in waste management and sustainability, the Australian Waste & Recycling Expo is a must-visit! This event brings together experts, policymakers, and industry leaders to discuss innovations in recycling and sustainability.

Event Dates: 23–24 July 2025
