Yarra Ranges Council offers an optional waste collection service to non-residential customers and from October will be aligned with the residential service bin sizes and collection frequencies. Non-residential customers include businesses, schools, religious organisations and other non-residential organisations. Non-residential waste service customers are not eligible for hard waste and bundled branches collections.
Bin collection frequencies are:
- Recycling bin collection fortnightly
- Garden Organics bin collection fortnightly until end of September 2023
- FOGO bin collection weekly from October 2023
- Rubbish bin collection weekly* until end of September 2023
- Rubbish bin collection fortnightly from October 2023
*Some existing non-residential customers have a twice weekly rubbish collection while others have an equivalent but altered capacity for once weekly collection. From October 2023 all Council rubbish bin collections will move to one fortnightly collection.
