Kerbside clean up

• Households that pay a domestic waste service are entitled to four bulky waste collections per year. These entitlements reset annually on 1 January.
• Residents can only book one kerbside collection per domestic dwelling at a time.
• If you are moving do not book a kerbside collection that will occur after your move out date. Take your items and book them in at your new property.
• Kerbside collections booked to a rental property by a tenant that moves out prior to the collection date will be treated as illegal dumping and penalty notices may apply.

• Each collection must be no more than one cubic metre in size - 1m x 1m x 1m, height x width x depth (about the size of a small box trailer).
• Collections must contain accepted items only.
• Items must be able to be safely lifted by two people.
• Ineligible items will not be collected.

• Items for collection must only be placed at the kerbside the night before the scheduled collection date
• Items must not obstruct footpaths, walkways, utility installations or disrupt pedestrian traffic.
• There must be clear access to your pile at the time of collection.
• Scrap metal items need to be stacked separately from any general waste items as these are collected by separate trucks.
• Doors must be removed from whitegoods that are booked for safety reasons, including but not limited to fridges, freezers, dryers and washing machines.
• Garden prunings must be cut into 1metre lengths and tied in bundles that can be lifted by a single person.
• Items must be bagged or boxed to prevent the potential for wind-blown littering.
• Items placed behind the property line will not be collected.

• If you book a kerbside clean up before 4.30pm on Friday afternoon, we can usually collect your clean up the following week.
• During peak times, the wait may be a little longer. Your confirmation email will include your collection date.
• Your items will usually be collected by the contractor between 6am – 4pm on your collection day.
• There are times when delays in collections occur and your items may not be collected until the day after your scheduled pick up.

• When an oversized pile is presented for collection only the allocated amount for the booking (one metre cubed) will be collected.
• Any material left behind from an oversize collection or ineligible items is the responsibility of the resident to remove from the kerbside.
• Items not removed from the kerbside within a week (seven days) will be treated as illegal dumping and fines apply.
• Piles blocked by cars or other vehicles may not be collected.
• The placement of bulky waste items out on the kerbside without a kerbside collection booking as per our current procedures will be considered as illegal dumping and individuals may face penalty notices.
