One of the greatest problems facing farmers in our community is the disposal of empty containers for chemicals used in crop production and animal health.

drumMUSTER is a nation program created for the collection and disposal/recycling of cleaned eligible non-returnable crop production and on-farm animal health chemical containers.

drumMUSTER is the single biggest environmental program ever undertaken jointly by farmers/end chemical users, Local Government and the Crop Production and Animal Health Industries.

To dispose of your empty chemical containers, clean them so they are clear of any residue (don't worry about stains - if you rub it and residue does not come off, it's fine).  Leave the lids off the drums after they have been cleaned.  The lids are made of a different form of plastic and cannot be recycled.  It also allows for the drums to dry out and saves time at inspection.  Metal drums should have the base pierced from the inside to aide in draining.  Once the container has been cleaned, it can be taken to any of the following drumMUSTER sites:
