Verge Collection Review Survey

Vergeside Waste Collection Information

Vergeside waste collection is a service provided by the City to collect a range of materials that cannot be disposed of in kerbside bins. These materials, collected from residential verges, are placed out for bulk material recovery or disposal. Verge collection services can be grouped into the following categories:

  • Bulk Waste:

    • White goods and metal products
    • E-waste
    • Mattresses
    • Furniture and other bulky waste
  • Green Waste:

    • Garden organics

  • Improve streetscapes;
  • Reduce incidences of illegal dumping;
  • Minimize waste generation;
  • Maximize material recovery;
  • Offer cost-effective service;
  • Enhance data collection and reporting;
  • Improve service for residents; and
