New Streamlined Waste Service Across the Coast

Published On

14/12/2017

From February 1, Council will partner with Cleanaway Pty Ltd to deliver essential waste services across the Central Coast.

For most residents, there will be no impact or disruption to the current service.

We will continue to offer general waste, recycling and green waste collection services as well as six free kerbside bulk waste collection services per year.

What does this mean for you?

For most residences, there will be little or no disruption to your current service.

However, streamlining our routing across the former Central Coast local government areas will mean a change to the bin collection day for some residences.

Letter notifications are being sent to all affected residences whose bin collection day will change. The changes will come into effect from Thursday February 1, 2018.

See a list of affected addresses.
