• put items outside the property boundary, or within 2m of an entrance
• large items and whitegoods should be put on a main street frontage and not in a rear laneway (so the large truck needed can access them)
• small and light items should be put in unwanted containers such as cardboard boxes or plastic bags, and these will be taken as part of the clean up.

E-waste and Other Items

E-waste is not accepted in this clean up - please use the CRC.

If you are unsure about an item - check our A-Z of Waste & recycling.

Or try Rehoming?  

Household clean up material is sent to landfill. Before you throw it out, why not resell, give away, or swap - try this list of rehoming options.
