Waste Disposal Guidelines

Residents transporting their own rubbish to a waste facility are reminded to:

  • Ensure all loads are secure so items do not fall from vehicles

Permission is required from Council before placing materials such as sand, soil or metal on the street verge adjacent to a property. All materials must be fully removed:

  • At the completion of the job, or

  • At the expiry of the permitted time allowed

Failure to do so may result in further action by Council.


Sewerage & Effluent Disposal

Sewerage waste within the Shire is managed through septic tank systems.

  • Effluent removal must be carried out by local licensed operators
