Welcome to Scrap Shack!

Scrap Shack was officially opened on 9 June 2016.  Council ran a ‘Name our Recycle Shop’ competition, which was won by local resident Brydie Maro with her suggestion ‘Scrap Shack’. Contractor, Don Groves then did a sensational job making the Scrap Shack sign from items recovered from the Transfer Station.

Items are available for people to take for personal use only, not for resale.

Whilst all items are currently free, it is intended that Scrap Shack will eventually be procured out to a third-party organisation.  The operator will be required to price items to ensure the operation is financially sustainable, but also record items and volumes so Council can track landfill diversion rates.
