Waste management is one of the most crucial municipal services provided by the Town of Victoria Park. It encompasses not only the disposal of waste but also the recovery of resources, making it a key component of the Town's environmentally sustainable practices.
In 2008, the Town developed a Strategic Waste Minimisation Plan in response to the State Government’s commitment to minimising waste creation, efficiently recovering, treating, and reusing waste, and disposing of waste responsibly. This plan has guided significant changes implemented by the Town and the Mindarie Regional Council.
To continue optimising waste management and deliver the best outcomes for the community, the Town now requires a new Strategic Waste Management Plan for the next five years. This new plan will address the evolving challenges and changes in the waste management industry.

The draft Strategic Waste Management Plan (SWMP) for 2025-2030 is available for public viewing and feedback. You can access it here or inspect a copy at the Town's Administration Centre, located at 99 Shepperton Road, Victoria Park.
Please note that the draft plan was initially advertised for public comment in June 2024. Since then, it has undergone revisions to align with other Town strategies and recent industry changes. The Town deems these changes significant enough to warrant another public comment period prior to finalising the draft for Council endorsement.
