The council's administrative building in Payinthi accepts free drop-offs of qualifying items. Residents can drop batteries for handheld appliances, mobile phones, and smart devices into a yellow tube. The customer service desk accepts fluorescent, halogen, and incandescent bulbs that otherwise head to the landfill. Prospect extracts valuable metals from gathered items and responsibly disposes of the remaining waste.
