drumMUSTER program

Council is now accepting bookings for the disposal of DrumMuster drums at all waste facilities. The maximum number of drums accepted at Mildura per booking is 200, with disposal available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

Rural waste facilities will accept drums on their open days, with a maximum of 100 drums per booking.

For large loads at any waste facility (100 to 200 drums), please bring a second person to assist with unloading, as the attendant is only required to check each drum.

DrumMuster disposal request form

Council rural waste facilities have smaller areas for drumMUSTER and therefore we may need to limit the number of drums that can be accepted at any time. 

The drumMUSTER program provides Australian agriculture and veterinary chemical users with a method of recycling empty chemical containers.

Please be advised that the staff at all sites are available to inspect drums only. If you think you may require assistance in unloading drums and stacking them into the compound, please bring extra persons to help. We also do not permit machinery to unload storage containers.

Drums are accepted at all Landfill and Transfer Station sites within our municipality through online booking only for the below mentioned sites:

  • Mildura Landfill
  • Cullulleraine Waste Facility
  • Murrayville Landfill
  • Nangiloc Transfer Station
  • Ouyen Landfill
  • Underbool Waste Facility
  • Walpeup Waste Facility
