Waste Transfer and Resource Recovery Facility

The proposal is to develop a Waste Transfer and Resource Recovery Facility approximately 10 kilometres from Perth at 25 Jackson Street, Bassendean in the Bassendean Industrial Area.

The proposal would include:

• a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) for the processing of co-mingled recyclables;
• acceptance, short term stockpiling and baling of source separated recycled commodities;
• glass crusher for management of waste glass from the MRF;
• a metal shredder for the processing of metal commodities;
• a Waste Transfer Station for the acceptance and short term storage of putrescible waste materials; and
• transportation off site of compacted putrescible waste materials that cannot be recycled to appropriate disposal facilities, and baled commodities for export.
