Werribee South drumMUSTER site closure

Important information

Werribee South drumMUSTER site closure

Agsafe has closed the Werribee South drumMUSTER collection site at Diggers Road following repeated safety and compliance issues that could not be resolved. We know this service has been valued by the local farming community for many years. You can continue recycling your drums at other approved drumMUSTER locations, and we remain committed to finding a more convenient option for the Werribee South area in the future.

Why the site has closed

The Werribee South site has been misused outside of collection hours, leading to:

  • Ineligible or contaminated containers being left on site

  • Risks to public safety, the environment, and program integrity

  • A reduction in the quality of materials collected for recycling

Despite extensive discussions with Wyndham City Council about alternative options, no agreement has been reached. We understand this may mean travelling further than usual, and we are continuing to work behind the scenes to secure a closer alternative for the Werribee South farming community.

Your nearest alternative site

You can continue to recycle empty, eligible, triple-rinsed chemical containers at:

Melton Recycling Facility
33 Ferris Road, Cobblebank VIC 3338

Check opening hours before you travel.
