Shire-Wide Green Waste Collection

This year Council is undertaking a Shire-wide Green Waste Collection.

Residents can stack green waste neatly on their footpath from 21 February 2026 in a manner that allows pedestrian traffic to have continued access.

All green waste must be shorter than 2 metres in length and less than 300mm dia. No lawn clippings, hard or household rubbish.

For more information, call Council on 4620 8888

DO YOU HAVE A LEAK DRAINING YOUR WALLET?

An unidentified underground leak can cost much more than the repair if unchecked.

For more information, feel free to contact Council on 4620 8888.
