 Time to check your chemical shed: ChemClear is coming

Since late last year, ChemClear has been in the planning stages for its 2013 collection for Queensland which is on track to get started in June. Currently there is 37,500 litres of unwanted and out-of-date chemical logged with ChemClear since collecting more than 52,000 litres in 2011 after the Queensland Floods.

ChemClear encourages all property owners to check out their sheds and register any unwanted agvet chemicals with the program before the registration line closes on 19th April.

Only product registered prior to this closing date will be accepted during the collection run later this year.

ChemClear is an industry stewardship program which collects and disposes agvet chemical products from 99 manufacturers under a levy that is applied at the point of sale.  Non- participating manufactures’ products, unlabelled containers, unregistered and mixed chemicals can be collected through ChemClear for disposal under a fee per litre charge.

ChemClear National Program Manager Lisa Nixon said the team will be in direct contact with the registrant to establish a collection date, time and pick up location in their local area for the safe retrieval of their products.

To register for this collection or for any further information, call 1800 008 182 or log on to www.chemclear.com.au.

For all local enquiries call ChemClear Regional Consultant Colin Hoey on 0428 964 576.
