Bins will be provided for the fortnightly 3-bin rated service to all property types within the serviced zone (outside the CBD), Businesses and Industry are advised to make contact with commercial waste operators for additional waste collections.
Properties outside the defined boundary will not by serviced by Council. Residents are encouraged to seek private arrangements with a commercial waste operator or take their waste to the waste management centre.
