Residents can drop off their unwanted household and agricultural chemicals – FREE of charge – at Council’s Moss Vale Works Depot (entry via Parkes Road), Moss Vale from 9.00am to 3.30pm.

Chemicals that can be dropped off include residential quantities of pesticides and herbicides, paints and paint products, solvents and household cleaners, motor oils and fuels, batteries, gas bottles, fire extinguishers, fluorescent tubes, pool and hobby chemicals (ie. photography) and acids and alkalis.
