Recycling

All residential properties within the Katanning townsite are eligible to receive a 240 litre recycling bin.  Bins are collected fortnightly and must be placed out on the kerb by 6.00am on the same day as your rubbish collection.  Please note that if you put non-recyclable items in your recycling bin you may contaminate the whole load and force it to be sent to landfill instead.
