Residents who live in a house or small complex (a unit, duplex, villa or townhouse complex with six dwellings or fewer) are entitled to two pre-booked Council clean-ups each financial year.
Please place materials out the day before your collection date. Leaving material out earlier may mean your clean-up is treated as illegal dumping. You should consider this when choosing your collection date.
Tell us, what's in your clean-up?
To assist us with bookings, we ask that you estimate what materials will be in your clean-up and how much you'll need us to collect.
- General Household Items - up to three cubic metres per clean-up
- Fridges/large White goods - Allow 2 business days from your collection date
- Mattresses - limit of two, either two mattresses or one mattress and one base. Allow up to five days for collection as mattresses may be collected by a different truck
