We’ve received reports of discoloured water in various locations across Queanbeyan, Jerrabomberra and Googong recently. First and foremost, we want to assure you that the water supply meets Australian Drinking Water Guidelines and is safe to drink. We are flushing water mains and working with Icon Water to investigate further.
New days and hours will soon be in place for our Waste Transfer Stations. Our busier transfer stations will be open longer and on more days. The changes make the hours more consistent across the transfer stations. All QPRC waste facilities will now be closed on NSW public holidays. Find out more about the new hours.

Mulch at the Queanbeyan Waste Minimisation Centre will only be available for purchase until mid-August 2026. Compost, made from the green-lidded FOGO bin waste, will continue to be available for purchase.
This project was made possible through the Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Package, co-funded by the NSW and Australian Governments.
After working closely with the Araluen community a 100,000lt water tank has been filled (which will be filled from a bore) and a solar pump. The tank will be fitted with two valves, one for campers to access water and to support the new toilets, the other will provide the Araluen Fire Brigade with back up water in case of an emergency.
The amenities block has solar lighting. A new solar BBQ has been installed to replace the old wood burning fire place along with new picnic tables.
