Have your say on the City’s Neerabup Resource Recovery Precinct
Published Monday, 27th October 2025
The City of Wanneroo has released concept plans for its proposed Neerabup Resource Recovery Precinct – a modern, purpose-built facility focused on recycling, reuse and resource recovery.
The 30-hectare precinct will bring together all of the City’s waste services in one location, using best-practice design and advanced technology to recover valuable materials and reduce the environmental impacts of waste.
Mayor Linda Aitken said the project represents a major step towards a cleaner, more sustainable future for the City and its residents.
“Our vision is to build a facility that turns waste into opportunity – one that drives innovation, creates local jobs and protects our environment for generations to come,” she said.
“This is not a landfill. It’s a state-of-the-art resource recovery precinct that will use enclosed, well-managed systems to ensure minimal impact on surrounding areas while helping us recover and reuse more of what we throw away.
“With Tamala Park nearing the end of its operational life, this project will set the foundation for responsible, efficient and sustainable waste management as our community continues to grow.”
Located on Wattle Avenue in Neerabup, the precinct will include a Community Recycling Centre, Waste Transfer Station and Materials Recovery Facility, with scope for future waste-to-energy technology.
Community members and stakeholders are encouraged to review the proposal and concept plan and share feedback by Friday 21 November 2025.
A Community Drop-in Information Session will be held at the Wanneroo Civic Centre from 5pm to 7pm on Thursday 13 November 2025, where residents can learn more and ask questions about the proposal.
