The Greenmount Waste Management Facility will be closed from 5 September 2023 to enable bulk earthworks to be completed.
Toowoomba Regional Council’s Water and Waste Committee Portfolio Leader Cr Nancy Sommerfield said the old landfill that is co-located with the transfer station was now closed for remediation works to ensure it meets regulatory requirements.
Cr Sommerfield said Council’s contractor (Joe Wagner Group) had started the earthworks at the site.
“The current works involve bulk earthworks to cap and close the landfill,” Cr Sommerfield said.
“The site will be temporarily closed from 5 September and is currently scheduled to reopen early next year.
“During the closure, customers can use the Greater Toowoomba Waste Management Facility, 270 O’Mara Road, Wellcamp, which is open Monday to Friday 7am to 5pm and Saturday and Sunday from 8am to 5pm.
“I encourage residents to take advantage of the additional recycling opportunities that are available at the Region’s premier waste facility during the closure period.
“Alternatively, residents can visit the Clifton Waste Management Facility, Logan Road, Clifton which is open Monday and Friday from 1pm to 5pm, Wednesday from 8am to noon, and Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 3pm.
“Council apologises for any inconvenience the temporary closure may cause and thanks the community for their patience and co-operation during these works.”
