Hard rubbish collection is for Paluma residents only.
This year, Townsville City Council will collect hard rubbish from a central location, and residents must take their rubbish to two skip bins that will be placed at the village green on Sunday 30th of this month. They are for all the hard rubbish that can not fit in your council bin. Each household is allowed 2 cubic square metres, approximately the size of 8 wheelie bins. Please check the TCC website to see what is, and is “NOT” allowed to go in these bins. The bins are very large and have walk in gates. This must be stacked correctly from the back to the gate to avoid residents having to climb over your rubbish to get theirs in. The bins will be in place for two weeks.
As this is not the usual kerb-side collection and we have to take it all to the hall, anyone with a trailer or ute and the muscles to help a neighbour out would be greatly appreciated. I will put my hand up first. I have a ute, but no muscles. I’m here most of the time, feel free to let me know if you need transport.
A big thank you to Violet for pushing the Council with me for the past three months.
Cheers everyone Lynda
SERIOUSLY PEOPLE! IF IT FITS IN YOUR COUNCIL BIN, DO NOT TAKE UP UNNECESSARY SPACE THAT YOUR FELLOW RESIDENTS NEED!!!
