Green Waste Disposal: Important Information
The invasive pest polyphagous shot-hole borer has been detected in the Perth metropolitan area, and a quarantine area has been implemented to help protect WA’s forests, food and agriculture industries. All green waste should be securely contained for transport in a covered trailer, truck or skip bin. For more information, visit the Polyphagous shot-hole borer webpage
