Beware! Early Rubbish Collection
5.45am May St (Mt) rubbish picked up! Got neighbours out in time but not our own. Just as well ours is only half full. Meanwhile 3 neighbours put theirs out just after truck had been as they heard the truck and hoping there's another collection later on. No notes in mailbox or anything. Anyone knew about this change? Thought it was about 7am earliest and normaly the truck gets here about 9ish earliest. Not sure about food scraps as noone else had theirs out. Will put ours out just in case unless hear otherwise. Will ring Council and will inform here if I have an answer.
