Rubbish - Option 4: Council no longer offers a rubbish collection service

Instead of Council providing a rubbish collection service, households would pay a private rubbish bin service provider

Estimated user fee per property per annum from 1 July 2021 (based on weekly collection) current market prices:

  • $285 for a 120-litre bin based on an average price*
  • $242 for an 80-litre bin based on an average price
  • $411 for a 240-litre bin based on an average price

*Business case provided an indicative cost. As at February 2020 the price range for this service was $245 to $325 per annum, ascertained from pricing information publicly available on service provider websites. We’ve used a figure midway through the range for the purposes of this estimate.
