Deferred Waste Levy
Deferred Waste Levy
The Queensland Government confirmed they will be deferring the waste levy increase originally scheduled to take effect from 1 July 2020, until 1 January 2021. This means the levy will stay at $75 per tonne for general waste, and $105 and $155 per tonne for hazardous (regulated) wastes until 31 December 2020. Additional information relating to the waste levy can be found here.
