What if I have extra garbage that wont fit into my bin?
Councils Recycling and Waste Service has been designed to take less waste than previously in order to encourage residents to recycle. If you find that you do not have enough bin space you may be able to organise additional bin(s). Council will conduct an audit at your home to determine the best way to both meet your waste management needs and achieve positive environmental outcomes. Additional bins are charged in accordance with Councils Fees and Charges. For further information please contact Councils Waste Education Officer on 9748 9916. Not having adequate bin space is not an excuse for the following (which are considered illegal dumping and may attract fines): • To use an incorrect bin to dispose of excess waste material eg household garbage in the garden vegetation bin. • To place any of your excess waste in a neighbours bin without their prior permission. • To place excess material outside of bins eg on the street, naturestrip or on top of bins. • To place excess domestic waste i
