Bulk Verge Collection

The City provides an annual bulk verge collection.

We will collect items sorted into three separate piles:

1. White goods
2. Metal items
3. Household furniture/bulky items

Items we collect:

• White goods (fridges, stoves, ovens, etc.) - detach doors from fridges and freezers
• Metal items and scrap metal
• Large household furniture and bulky items

Items we do not collect:

• Glass, including plate glass, mirrors, shower screens and glass in furniture
• Tyres or motor vehicle parts 
• TV's, computers and printers
• Mattresses (for free collection of up to two mattresses book online or call Soft Landings on 6244 4351 8am to 3:30pm (Monday to Friday)
• Building materials, bricks, paving, tiles, ceramic items eg toilet cisterns, toilet bowls, basins and baths etc, concrete, wire, sand or cement
• Asbestos or fibre cement products
• Garden organics and food waste
• Fire extinguishers, EPIRBs or flares
• Hazardous waste, i.e. chemicals, oils, paint, pesticides, solvents, batteries, gas bottles, empty aerosol cans or smoke detectors 
• Items over 1.8 metres in length and over the allowed volume
• Unsorted waste
• Bean bags

Any items that are not collected can be dropped off at the Armadale Landfill and Recycling Facility. (Fees may apply)

Once your items have been collected, a quick clean up of any broken pieces left behind will help protect the local environment. This prevents debris being washed into local waterways or causing harm. Note: Artificial turf is not a permitted verge treatment within the City's verge treatment guidelines. Consequently, the City and its contractors are not responsible for damage that may occur to artificial turf during bulk or green waste verge collections.

• Place waste on the verge on your scheduled weekend. The contractor will only check the verge once and the collection will start from 7am on the Monday, continuing in the area until all waste presented is collected.
• If you're sharing a verge with a neighbour, notify the City prior to collection start date.
• Place waste on the verge one metre (1m) back from the kerb, taking care not to obstruct footpaths, bus shelters, line of sight or create a safety hazard.
• Place items clear of vehicles, trees, water meters, fences, letterboxes, reticulation and sprinklers to allow collection without causing damage.
• Make sure there is no more than 4 cubic metres of general bulk waste and no more than 4 cubic metres combined metals and white goods.
• Excess waste will not be collected (waste over the size limit or volume limit).
• Do not put bulk waste out prior to your nominated weekend as you may receive a $200 litter infringement.

Look up your verge collection zone by starting to enter your house number and street name and wait for a drop down box to appear and select your address.
