Responsibilities

Each bin has a unique serial and/or chip number which can be provided to assist with finding the missing bin. If the missing bin is not found it needs to be replaced at the cost of the resident/business owner.
  • Replacement bin costs are as per adopted fees and charges. Council must be contacted to arrange payment. Council may not deliver the replacement bin until payment has been received. If the missing bin is found after the resident has paid for a replacement Council will refund the replacement cost and collect the replacement bin.
  • Any waste and recycling bins that are damaged by residents, tenants, or business owners will need to be replaced at the cost of the resident/business owner. Damage may include, but is not limited to, melting with hot ash, private vehicular damage etc. If the bin is deemed to be damaged by Council or Council's contractor, the bin will then be replaced at no charge. 
  • Council will only collect waste and recycling bins that have been issued by Council.
  • For major commercial waste and recycling collection contracts, the General Manager has the authority to negotiate a competitive price that does not create a financial loss for Council.
