There will be changes to kerbside bin collection over the Christmas and New Year period in Mount Alexander Shire.
Monday 25 December collection will take place on Saturday 23 December.
Monday 1 January collection will take place on Saturday 30 December.
As usual, Council recommends that residents place their bins out the night before collection day to ensure they’re out in time for collection early the following day.
Normal Monday kerbside collection services will resume from Monday 8 January 2024
Please note – this will only impact residents who have their bins collected on Mondays. There will be no changes to kerbside collections on any other days over this period.
