Kerbside Clean-up

This service is provided to help residents to dispose of bulky or excessive household items. This financial year (1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025) each household receives four free book-in kerbside clean-up collections as part of a 12-month trial.

Households can present a maximum of two cubic metres (2m3) (equivalent to one box trailer load) of materials per collection. The materials must be placed neatly on the nature strip no earlier than 24 hours before your booked collection date and must follow our presentation guidelines.

If you are unsure where to present your kerbside waste, call council (02) 9725 0222 where our friendly staff will locate the ideal spot for you.

Residents living in a building complex of twelve (12) or more units or buildings within the CBD will need to contact their managing body to organise a collection.

This service is very popular so remember to book in early and plan ahead.

Book now online by clicking the button below or call the Council on (02) 9725 0222.

How to present your Kerbside Clean-up

Place your items at the kerbside directly in front of your property the night before your schedule collection. The items for collection must fit within two cubic metres (2m3) and must not obstruct footpaths, walkways, or disrupt traffic. 

If your property has a limited frontage, is located on a cul-de-sac, or is a corner property, and you are unsure where to place your items for kerbside clean-up, please contact Council and we will provide guidance on the best placement to minimise any impact on your neighbours.
