Here’s your Springtime opportunity to clip and trim overgrown plants on your property, tackle the weeds, and dispose of them in flexible garden-waste bags located around the Point.
If you’re not sure what is yours to do, note that at the front of your house you’re responsible for tidying any planted area between your home and your side of the footpath.
Bags will be put out on Thursday, Nov 7, so you have the following weekend to get busy in.
We’re confident you’ll want to contribute to keep our neighbourhood looking its beautiful best! Read on for bin locations near you.
Sixteen bags are being distributed (three more than last time) and will be collected again when full. Please don’t overfill them, because if they’re spilling over with waste the contractors may not uplift them. There are fewer bins in newer zones because plant growth there is still immature.
Below the black stars are the Clean Up weekend bin locations on the map or the street names below to find one near you.

They usually fill up fast so, please, ONLY GARDEN WASTE, WEEDS AND FLAX. NO GENERAL HOUSEHOLD RUBBISH!
If you’re a landlord with tenants whose rent covers garden maintenance, remind them too of the need to weed. And if they’re not doing it, please get it seen to. The neighbours wills love you for it because then the whole neighbourhood will retain its good looks and resale value.
Clip those hedges, pull those thistles and let’s get things looking super for summer!
