Rubbish - Option 3: Council provides a weekly rubbish collection service

Households would receive a 120-litre wheelie bin collected weekly.

There will be some flexibility to choose a different size bin with a targeted rate reflecting the size of the bin. It’s likely a fee would be charged for this separately and the details for this will be worked out in the coming year.

An 80-litre or 240-litre bin could be selected but this would have to be by 31 March each year because of the way rates are set.

Estimated targeted rate per property per annum from 1 July 2021 (based on weekly collection):

• $144 for a 120-litre bin
• $114 for an 80-litre bin
• $288 for a 240-litre bin
