New dump point at Showgrounds

Visitors travelling in fully self-sufficient caravans, motorhomes and RV’s now have access to the new free public dump point at Shepparton Showgrounds.

Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Kim O’Keeffe said “we have been working with the local caravan and motorhome communities and understood the need to have a public accessible dump point”.

“The new dump point allows easy access for travellers visiting Greater Shepparton. We have had one in Tatura for a number of years, having one now in Shepparton is great for visitors to our region”

“We welcome thousands of visitors to our region each year and to now provide infrastructure that will encourage increased visitation from the RV market is a positive for the region. The location of the dump point in the CBD will allow visitors to see our great city whilst encouraging them to visit our attractions and stock up on supplies”.

“The location allows for easy access to larger vehicles up to 19.5 metres in length, to pull up at the showgrounds and dispose of their black and grey waste,” said Cr O’Keeffe.

The access road to the dump point maybe inaccessible during major events.

Greater Shepparton recognises the importance of the RV market and will continue to look to provide for this growing market
