 How does a clean up work?
To book Council's Clean Up Service, call 1300 36 2170. Each residence can have two free clean up services per calendar year.
Council provides two types of free collections of larger household waste:

You must arrange collection before placing out your material. You will be provided with an authorised collection sticker. Please book at least two weeks in advance.
 Metal and whitegoods collection
Council will collect up to three whitegoods or one cubic metre of metal. This material is recycled. Please remove door seals from fridges and freezers before collection.
- General cleanup waste collection
Council provides up to two collections per year of two cubic metres of general waste.
All items for collection must be placed out the night before the arranged collection date.
