Garden Waste Collection Service

The garden waste collection service is available across the city.

Fortnightly collections are made on the same day as your household waste collection in the alternate week to your recycling.

If you are already using wheelie bins for your household rubbish and recycling and you subscribe to the garden waste service we will provide you with a wheelie bin (even if you previously received a sack service.

If you are using the old sack and box collection method for your household rubbish and recycling and you subscribe to the garden waste service we will provide you with a set of brown 2016 garden waste sacks as these properties are unsuitable for wheelie bins.

You can order more than one garden waste service at an additional cost.

The annual subscription remains at $70 a year and runs fortnightly from 22nd February 2016 through to 27th November 2016.

You will need an online account to order/renew the garden waste service.
