Shredded Log Mulch Free to Shire Residents

Bellingen Shire Council would like to offer shire residents the opportunity to take some free shredded hardwood mulch in time for that Christmas gardening project.

The large logs and tree stumps that have been cleaned up after storm events have been processed at the Raleigh waste management facility, tested, and is now ready to go back out to the community.

The mulch will be free to Bellingen shire residents from Saturday 12 December. To get your mulch simply visit the Raleigh Waste Management Centre located on Shortcut Road during normal operating hours and enquire at the weighbridge.

Each resident can take home the equivalent of one trailer load per household per day from Saturday 12 December to 12 January 2021 or until the mulch is all taken. 

Residents will be required to supply identification showing that they live within the shire to gain access to this free mulch. For reasons of public safety residents will be required to load their own vehicles so if you want to take advantage of this offer, please bring a shovel or fork and remember to cover your load.

This material is intended for domestic residents and will not be available for commercial use.   

For more information please contact the Raleigh Wase Management Centre on 0436028179.

Bellingen Shire Council Waste Management facilities will be open during normal operational hours during the Christmas and New Year period excluding Public Holidays. For further information on operating hours, please Bellingen Shire Council’s website at www.bellingen.nsw.gov.au .
