Please respect our neighbourhood
Dumping rubbish on the berm is illegal. You can dispose of items you no longer want or additional rubbish by:
• Taking it to your nearest rubbish transfer station or community recycling centre (charges may apply).
• Donating items that are in good condition and could enjoy a ‘second life’ to your local charity store or reuse shop, during opening hours only.
If you see dumped rubbish, call us on 0800 NODUMP (0800 663 867) to report it. Dumpers will be fined up to $30,000.
