Below is a list of Council charges that can be included in a rate notice.

Waste collection charge

Waste collection charges are user-pays based charges which are levied on all properties receiving waste collection in the declared service area to recover associated costs.   

A service means 1 x Waste bin (dark green or red lid) and 1 x Recycling bin (yellow lid).  Waste is picked up weekly and recycle is picked up fortnightly.

If ordering a new service for a new house, don’t forget to update your contact details.
For more information head to our waste and recycling page.

IMPORTANT:  PLEASE CHECK THE NUMBER OF SERVICES BEING CHARGED ARE CORRECT ON EVERY RATE NOTICE.  Please contact Council immediately if you have any concerns.

More information on Council charges can be found in the revenue statement contained in our budget document.
