Green Waste Collection
The Shire of Ashburton provides a free yearly green waste collection for residents in Tom Price, Paraburdoo and Onslow. These collections help to minimise the risk of flying debris during cyclonic weather events.
Register for Green Waste Collection
As Green Waste Collection will be conducted by hand, residents are asked to register their homes if they have green waste they would like collected. Registration details will open closer to the collection date.
