Bulky Waste and Green Waste Kerbside Collection
We hold an annual bulky waste and green waste kerbside collection.
Darlington Point: Monday 23 October 2023
Coleambally: Monday 30 October 2023
We will collect the bulky waste and the green waste at different times in the same week so please separate the bulky waste and the green waste into two piles. Please leave the waste on the nature strip before 8.00 am on the Monday of your collection week.
If you are a senior resident and have disabilities, we can help you move the waste to the kerbside. Please contact us on 1300 676 243 if you would like assistance.
Before putting an item out for collection, consider if it could be reused or repurposed by someone else. Why not sell online or have a garage sale?
