To Revolve clients – regarding the new Mugga Tender

You will recall that Revolve had once again been forced to submit a tender in September this year for it's own Resource Recovery business on the Mugga Landfill. Now there appears to be a delay in finalising the details in regard to selecting the operator for the site.

A large amount of resources have gone to landfill since Aussie Junk went broke and Thiess took over their operation.

Sadly Revolve is aware that this large amount of lost resources also means lost employment to the community.

Due to this slack response we ask the Canberra community to be patient and continue to support Revolve by taking their goods for drop-off down to our site on the Hume Revolve Resource Recovery Estate located off the roundabout near the Materials Recovery Facility at the end of Mugga Lane at the bottom of the landfill.
