To put a clothing bin on Council land, commercial operators and not-for-profit organisations need to follow these steps.
To begin, complete a Clothing bin license application form with the following information:
- A plan showing the dimension and location of the bin/s (maximum 2 bins per location)
- A copy of your current public liability insurance certificate for a minimum cover of $10 million.
Your application will be assessed within 28 days. This is due to multiple teams at Council needing to review your application.
