Placement of bin and kerb
Bins should be 50cm apart with wheels facing away from the kerb. They should also be at least one metre from obstacles such as parked cars, trees and electricity poles. Line bins up in the same bin- type, for example all recycling bins next to each other. This will make it easier for the truck to collect. Bins must be less than 50kg to be emptied.
Hard rubbish collections
Just a reminder for residents, the large skip bin that is about the village for commercial waste is not for use by residents.
If you have any hard rubbish you need removed please call the Tea Tree Gully Council, on 8295 5077, who provide each residence with two free pick-ups a year.
When you do it, dont forget to let you neighbour know as they may have something to put out as well.
