What matters for waste & environmental in Alice Springs
Asbestos costs $500 a tonne at Shoal Bay in 2026-27 and is only accepted with prior approval. Deep burials run to a timetable of 9am, 11am and 2pm weekdays with four loads per slot, so an asbestos job in Darwin has to be booked around the tip, not the other way round.

City of Darwin runs one city-wide hard waste collection a year rather than a booking system, and the August 2026 pre-cyclone clean-up has been pushed back to May 2027 after Cyclone Fina. In the meantime residents can drop hard waste at Shoal Bay year round using the Access Tag issued to properties that pay the waste levy in their rates.

Secure Document Destruction in Alice Springs, FAQs
On-site or off-site shredding?
On-site means a truck shreds in your car park and you can watch it happen, which some compliance regimes want. Off-site is cheaper per kilo and goes to a secure plant. Both should end with a certificate of destruction.
How long do I have to keep records before shredding?
It depends on the record. Many Australian business and tax records must be kept for five to seven years, and employee and health records longer, so check the retention rule before destroying anything.
