Disruption to Waste, Recycling and Food and Garden Waste Collections

Residents may experience a delay in their waste, recycling or food and garden waste collections today (Friday 8 October) due to a reduced number of garbage trucks in operation.

Council has been advised by our waste contractor Cleanaway that unfortunately due to a number of their employees needing to isolate and await COVID-19 tests that our number of collection trucks has been reduced today.

Waste and recycling collections are being prioritised with the trucks that are available today, with all remaining bins to be collected tomorrow (Saturday 9 October).

We apologise for any inconvenience and ask that residents please leave their bins out overnight for collection.

If your bin is not collected over the weekend, please let us know via the Report a bin problem page.
