Waste and Recycling

Thornleigh Community Recycling Centre (CRC)

Please note changed traffic conditions are active during the Community Recycling Centre’s busy period.

On reopening in the new year, there is high demand causing queues and delays. Traffic management controls will be in place.

If you have excess cardboard or mixed recycling, the Mount Kuring-gai Household Recycling Drop Off Area is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 5 Beaumont Road, Mount Kuring-gai.

To avoid a long wait at the Thornleigh CRC, sort your waste before you visit, consider postponing your visit to later in January, and ensure you follow traffic and site safety instructions.

If you are dropping off items including batteries, clothing, visit our A-Z Guide for alternative recycling options.
