I have a Broken or Stolen bin
We can fix or replace your broken or stolen bin. Fill out the Wheelie Bin Replacement form below, or contact Council on 1300 005 872. The approval/signature of the property owner is not required for a repair or a replacement bin.
Damaged bins are repaired/replaced on the property’s next service day depending on bin type e.g. waste or recycle. Please note that if the damaged bin is not presented on this day a repair cannot occur/replacement bin cannot be delivered and a further request will need to be lodged.
Stolen bins are replaced on a Wednesday or on the property’s next service day, whichever is first depending on the date and time the request is lodged with the Waste/Recycle Collection Contractor.
For more information, please phone Council on 1300 005 872.
