Eastern Creek Resource Recovery Park

Veolia Eastern Creek Resource Recovery Park

Eastern Creek Resource Recovery Park in Sydney’s west is home to two innovative waste processing facilities: an ORRF, diverting organics from landfill and converting them into valuable resources for healthy plant growth; and an ARRT, which uses advanced specialist technologies to recover and recycle more from waste. Together, these facilities lead the change from traditional waste disposal to economically sustainable resource recovery solutions.

Eastern Creek ORRF

Established in 2010, the Eastern Creek ORRF helps divert organic materials from landfill by processing them into composts and conditioners, recycling untreated timber into mulches and biofuels.

The site can process up to 50,000 tonnes of source-separated organic materials each year. Open windrow composting technology is used to produce high-quality compost and mulch products for use in home gardens, agriculture, sporting fields and public spaces.

Environment and Safety

At Veolia we take our responsibility to the safety of people and the environment seriously.
All visitors to Veolia facilities must observe site safety requirements, including wearing enclosed footwear at all times.

Veolia Environment Report Hotline

Veolia has a dedicated Environment Report Hotline for anyone living, or working, near one of our facilities in New South Wales and Victoria.

The hotline has been set up to receive feedback on environmental matters which are sometimes associated with recycling and waste management facilities – like odours, noise, dust and mud tracking.

This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your call will always be answered by a real person - not just an automated message - who will enter your feedback and forward it immediately to the staff at the facility. This allows us to take immediate action to determine the cause of any concerns you may have, and gives us the best chance of rectifying the situation quickly.
A Veolia employee will endeavour to contact you within 24 hours with feedback on your report.

To provide your feedback, please call:
NSW/VIC - 1800 ENV REP (1800 368 737)
