Waste

  • You can now be rewarded for recycling correctly! Our drivers will be inspecting some randomly selected recycling bins and if you have recycled correctly, you will automatically go in the monthly draw to win a shop Latrobe City gift card! 

    If you are one of the lucky ones to find a correct recycling bin tag attached to your bin we wish you luck in our monthly draw.  Latrobe City Council are running this promotion from December 9 through to the end of March.
     
    So make sure paper, cardboard, metal and accepted hard plastics are correctly sorted into your yellow bin and are loose and not in bags. Find out more.
