Updated 24 August

Our normal waste collection for residents has resumed following industrial action by employees of our domestic waste contractor, Cleanaway.

We’re hopeful that the ongoing negotiations between Cleanaway and its employees will result in an outcome that works for all parties.

We thank our residents for their patience and understanding during the disruption to our waste collection.
