Resource Recovery Weekend 2026 offers a fantastic opportunity for families to responsibly dispose of hard-to-recycle items and contribute to a cleaner, greener community. This event is perfect for parents looking to teach their children about sustainability and waste reduction while decluttering the home.
During this two-day event, residents can drop off a variety of recyclable materials including tyres, e-waste, cardboard, and expanded polystyrene. The event is free for City of Wanneroo residents and provides a convenient way to recycle items that are often difficult to dispose of properly. Expect a friendly atmosphere with helpful staff guiding you through the drop-off process.
- Tyres: Limit of 4 per household, including 4x4, motorcycle, and passenger vehicle tyres only.
- E-waste: Includes computers, laptops, mobile phones, printers, monitors, and circuit boards.
- Cardboard: Must be clean and preferably flattened.
- Polystyrene (EPS): Bulk white packaging accepted, excluding meat trays and beads.
Proof of residence is required for tyre drop-off (driver’s licence or rates notice).
The event is held at Ashby Operations Centre (north entrance), 1204 Wanneroo Road, Ashby. Ample parking is available, and the site is easily accessible by car. Clear signage will direct you to the drop-off points for each material type, making the process smooth and efficient for busy families.
Please note that some items are not accepted, including CRTs, broken screens, whitegoods, contaminated or hazardous materials, furniture, and more than 4 tyres per household. For these items, alternative recycling centres such as Tamala Park or Balcatta Recycling Centre are recommended (fees may apply). For any questions, residents can call (08) 9405 5000.
This event is free of charge for City of Wanneroo residents. No booking is required, simply bring your recyclable items during the event hours. Take advantage of this opportunity to reduce landfill waste and teach your children the importance of environmental responsibility.
