Council's Scheduled Clean-Up Service provides for the disposal of larger household items, that do not fit into your red-lid rubbish bin and items generally not accepted as part of your weekly Domestic Waste Collection.

How does this service work?

Each week, Council will collect clean-up items from an allocated zone. Clean-up collections occur on Mondays unless it is a public holiday. In the case of a public holiday, collection will occur on Tuesday.

How to ensure your clean-up items are collected

• Put them out for collection on the Sunday night before your Monday collection. Not earlier and not later!
• Place items neatly and safely by the edge of the kerb in front of your own property.
• Box, tie or wrap small items.
• Take doors off fridges and other white goods/furniture.
• Materials must not exceed one ute load per household.
• Don’t put items out after the collection day. They will not be collected.

Please ensure that you comply with the above criteria. Clean-up notices starting at $320 will be issued for non compliance.

What do we collect?

• Small items of furniture
• Small appliances
• White goods (remove fridge doors)
• Mattresses
• Dismantled bed frames
• General household items.

What we don’t collect

• Soil and rocks
• Sawdust
• Building/renovation materials (bricks, concrete, tiles, timber)
• Hazardous materials such as chemicals, paint tins, batteries and oil
• Motor vehicle parts
• Items that exceed collection limit
• Garden organics (place in your garden waste crate/bin)
• Household recycling such as cardboard boxes (place in your recycling crate/bin).

Re-use benefits the community as well as the environment

Think about alternative uses for your clean-up items before putting them out for collection. You may want to consider donating items to charities, having a garage sale or selling the items in the classifieds. Many charities offer a free pick-up service for pre-loved goods. See our Guide to Re-use and Recycling (PDF) for information about how you can extend the life of your pre-loved goods.
