Temporary Bombala-area recycling collection schedule until early 2025

Published on 11 October 2024

A temporary change to the kerbside bin collection schedule for properties in the Bibbenluke, Bombala, Cathcart and Delegate collection area is now in effect until early 2025.

Council’s collection contractor are still waiting on the delivery of their brand new collection truck for this route, with the date for the new vehicle to commence operations now estimated to be early 2025.

The temporary vehicle servicing bins in the wider Bombala area has lower capacity, which requires this short-term change to the collection schedule.

Changes to recycling bin collections for Bombala area until early 2025

  • Bombala and Delegate recycling bins will be collected fortnightly on Tuesdays.
    • Some collection runs may exceed the temporary truck capacity. If your bin is missed, please contact Council’s resource and waste team on 1300 345 345.
  • Bibbenluke and Cathcart recycling bins will be collected fortnightly on Wednesdays.
  • Continue placing your bins on the kerb the evening before your collection day.
  • Waste collections (your red-lidded rubbish bin) will continue each week on Mondays.

We appreciate the community’s understanding during this temporary change, and look forward to sharing the news about the Bombala area’s brand new collection vehicle hitting the road early next year.
