Collection service summary

Paddington / West Woollahra

As of Monday 2 June 2008, residents should note that garbage, recycling and garden organics will be collected weekly on Mondays using either 120L wheelie bin or up to two 55L bins.

These changes will improve the collection service socially and environmentally by reducing truck movements, associated noise and emmissions, increase recycling rates and reduce the impact of waste on the environment.
