Fees and charges

An EPA levy is applied to all Residential and Commercial landfill charges. The levy is set by the State Government of Victoria under the Environment Protection Act 2017 and is paid for all waste received at licensed landfills.

The key purpose of the levy is to encourage waste generators — including households and businesses — to reduce the amount of waste they send to landfill. Revenue raised from the levy is reinvested into waste reduction and resource recovery programs across Victoria by the State Government.

Please see table below for the 2026/2027 breakdown
