Bulk waste kerbside collection
Central Coast residents can book up to six general or green waste bulk kerbside collections a year. See the collection guidelines to ensure prompt pick-up.
Residents of most households can book up to six general or green waste bulk kerbside collections a year of two cubic metres per allocation.
For all accepted and non-accepted items, see the guidelines for bulk kerbside collection
For a prompt pick-up:
- make a kerbside collection booking prior to placing items out for collection
- place your items at kerbside the night before collection day
- ensure acceptable material is placed neatly on the footpath and does not exceed 1.8 metres in length
- ensure stumps and logs do not exceed 30cm in diameter
- present bulk household waste and bulk vegetation in separate piles
- One collection is two cubic metres, which is roughly equivalent to a box trailer load.
If all collections have been used by a property, residents may receive an additional bulk kerbside collection service on any working day by providing 2 full business days’ notice. For bookings or more information contact (02) 4306 7900. For a list of the fees charged by Council for the 2024-2025 financial year, please refer to our Fees and Charges.
