The new waste collection system will be phased in during 2014-2015 for all households in Mosman, Manly, Warringah and Pittwater to increase our recycling and keep costs to ratepayers down.
This will coincide with the opening of the recycling facilities at Kimbriki and the permanent closure of the Belrose landfill station.
More information on how this new system is solving our region’s waste problem can be found here
The main changes are:
- One mixed food & vegetation bin. The mixed food & vegetation will be converted into compost and COLLECTED WEEKLY
- A free kitchen tidy and cornstarch bags delivered to all homes to collect food waste before it is placed in the bin
- One mixed recycling bin for paper and recyclable containers COLLECTED FORTNIGHTLY
- A general waste bin COLLECTED FORTNIGHTLY
- In units/apartments ALL bins will be COLLECTED WEEKLY.
Options will be investigated for residents with special waste needs. These could include more frequent collections for those with nappies, varying bin sizes and support for the elderly or infirm.
