Residents receive weekly general waste and alternating fortnightly recycling and green waste bin collection services.
The Town's Waste & Recycling Guide provides a great variety of information on what to do with your waste. This includes information on what items can go in each bin, verge collection information as well as further information about the Town's closest recycling centre, the West Metropolitan Recycling Centre.
