Free drop-off support for Huon Valley 

Great news for registered and compliant clean-ups: collected litter can be dropped off for free at Council waste transfer stations throughout the region. For larger volumes exceeding a ute-load or equivalent, materials should be taken to Southbridge in Huonville. 

Protecting our environment 

Clean Up Australia inspires and mobilises communities to look after our environment and eliminate litter.

With our pristine rivers, forests, and farmland, the Huon Valley has every reason to participate. Every one of us has the power to protect the environment and make a real difference to the region we live in.
