DrumMUSTER Collection
DrumMUSTER is the National Program for collection and recycling of clean, empty farm chemical containers.
Chemical users pay 4 cents per litre or kilogram levy on eligible products sold in non-returnable containers.
Containers are identified by a logo (sticker, label or embossed), which shows they are eligible for recycling through drumMUSTER.
Farmers are given a receipt when delivering containers.
Quality Assurance Programs and Environmental Management Systems accept these receipts as evidence of responsible waste disposal.
All containers accepted by drumMUSTER are recycled into products such as wheelie bins, roadside posts, irrigation pipes, vineyard posts and outdoor furniture.
DrumMUSTER is an initiative of the Australian Local Government Association (ALGA), the National Farmers Federation (NFF), Avcare (the National Association of Crop Production and Animal Health) and the Veterinary Manufacturers and Distributors Association (VMDA) to provide farmers with an environmentally responsible way of disposing of their empty chemical containers.
Burning chemical containers or burying them on farm or in Council Landfills is illegal and incurs substantial criminal penalties, including fines of up to $500,000.
Mitchell Shire Council has a permanent DrumMUSTER location at the Seymour Transfer Station.
E-waste
E-waste is unwanted electronic goods like computers, televisions and DVD players. Some materials contained in e-waste are toxic to our environment, containing high levels of lead and mercury.
By recycling your e-waste, 98% of the materials are recovered and recycled to be used in the manufacturing of new products.
E-waste may be brought to any of Council's Resource Recovery Centres for recycling.
