Banks Peninsula community collection points

How the service works

For Banks Peninsula residents not on a kerbside collection route, there are community collection points where domestic quantities of rubbish and recycling can be dropped off. The amount of rubbish and/or recycling dropped off by a resident should not exceed the amount that can be placed in the kerbside wheelie bins. Properties not on a kerbside collection route pay a part Waste Minimisation Charge on their rates.

Colour of skip Description of waste Quantity that can be dropped off each fortnight 
RedHousehold rubbish  140 litres
Yellow Household recycling  240 litres

Ensure you use the collection points correctly:

  • Place only domestic quantities of rubbish and recycling in the skips.
  • Place only the rubbish and recycling items that are allowed in the relevant skips.
  • Take large items, quantities and commercial waste to a transfer station or EcoDepot for recycling or disposal.

Read the Waste Management Bylaw 2009 for the full list of terms and conditions around use of the community collection points.
