Mildura Rural City Council has put alternative arrangements in place to empty kerbside bins that are scheduled for collection on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.
Bins that would normally be emptied on Monday 25 December and Monday 1 January will be emptied on the following Wednesday this festive season.
Environment and Sustainability Portfolio Councillor Jason Modica said this change would impact around 5,500 properties in Mildura, Ouyen and along the Mallee Track.
“If you would usually put your bins out on a Sunday evening to be emptied on a Monday, then this change applies to you,” Cr Modica said.
“Residents are reminded to always put their bins out the night before their collection day, and to leave it out all day because trucks can come any time between 5am and 9pm.”
