Why we lead with green

Why so much of our work is garden waste

The hinterland grows all year. Subtropical blocks, big rural gardens and one wet season put out more green waste than any bin cycle can move. Byron Shire alone composts more than 3,000 tonnes of garden waste a year. When a weekend of cutting beats you, one truckload clears in an hour what the green bin moves in a season.

Palm fronds, hedge trimmings, lantana and camphor laurel, whole-yard overgrowth and storm drop. We keep it green on the truck so it goes through the tip's cheaper garden stream.

You could borrow a free trailer, or you could just call us

Byron Shire actually makes DIY easy. Every property gets two $50 disposal vouchers a year, and the council lends out a free box trailer you can book and tow yourself. If you have the time, the tow bar and a free weekday, that is a genuinely good option. If you do not, we bring the truck, the crew and one fixed price of $100 per cubic metre.

Out past the tidy blocks

We know the long driveways and the cut roads

A lot of the shire is not tidy suburban blocks. Main Arm and Upper Main Arm sit up long rural driveways, and the SES Flood Guide notes that even a minor 2.5 metre flood cuts the road to Upper Main Arm above the Palmwoods junction, with Main Arm Road and Left Bank Road impassable at moderate levels. We plan the run around access, not the other way round.

Tell us about the driveway, the gate width or a creek crossing when you send photos, and the fixed quote is built for the real access. Based at Tyagarah, we are ten minutes from the turn-off.

Green disposal first

Where does it all actually go?

Green waste goes into the shire's composting stream, not landfill. Anything resaleable can go to the Re-Market Tip Shop at the Byron Resource Recovery Centre, which you check in with before the weighbridge, and to Vinnies on Dalley Street. E-waste, batteries, paint and gas bottles go to the free Community Recycling Centre. Only what nobody can use gets tipped.

What does go to the tip goes to the Byron Resource Recovery Centre at 115 The Manse Road, Myocum, open Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm and weekends 8:30 to 11:30am, closed public holidays. It is a transfer station, so it does not take asbestos.

The towns we work

Mullumbimby in the valley, Ocean Shores up on the ridge, Brunswick Heads down at the river mouth, and the hinterland blocks from Main Arm to Myocum in between. One flat rate everywhere.

The questions we get asked most

How do you work out the price?

By volume, not weight. $100 per cubic metre covers the crew, the loading, the transport and the disposal, and we confirm the space with you before anything is loaded. If you would rather do it yourself, the shire lends a free trailer and gives every property two $50 vouchers a year.

Can you come out today?

Often, yes. When a job fits into the day's run it goes same-day, and an early call gives it the best shot. Requests reach us at any hour, and sitting just ten minutes off at Tyagarah, we can usually be onto a Mullumbimby job fast.

Which areas do you cover?

Mullumbimby, Ocean Shores, Brunswick Heads, Main Arm and Upper Main Arm, Myocum, Billinudgel, New Brighton, South Golden Beach and the surrounding hinterland. One flat rate of $100 per cubic metre everywhere, including the long-driveway blocks.

Do you take a lot of green waste?

It is the work we do most. The hinterland grows all year and Byron Shire composts more than 3,000 tonnes of garden waste annually, so palm fronds, hedge trimmings, lantana and whole-yard overgrowth are our bread and butter. We keep it green on the truck for the composting stream.

Where does everything end up?

Green waste is composted, resaleable goods are offered to the Re-Market Tip Shop and Vinnies first, and e-waste, batteries and paint go to the free Community Recycling Centre. What is left goes to the Byron Resource Recovery Centre at Myocum, which is a transfer station and does not take asbestos.
