Request a new, extra or different bin

In most cases, you need to own the home to make changes to your Council waste service. This is because a change may require a waste charge adjustment on the rates notice.

You can submit a request to order a new or extra bin, change the size of a bin, or start a new bin service.

The process for ordering bins depends on whether you live in a single-unit dwelling or multi-unit dwelling.
