Policy statement 12: offensive wastes
Examples of offensive wastes are:
animal faeces
animal bedding
animal litter
nappy waste
domestic type incontinence waste
feminine hygiene wastes
Offensive wastes generated from a business activity will not be accepted at a HWRC. These businesses include:
kennels
catteries
nurseries or children day care centres
adult care homes
Waste from these businesses are classed as commercial waste. See policy statement 5, commercial waste for more details.
Excess household generated offensive waste that cannot be collected from kerbside bin collections can be brought to the HWRC. We only allow small quantities of no more than 7kg per day.
