The City encourages residents and visitors to help keep our natural environment clean and litter free.
Littering is an offence under the Litter Act 1979 and the City's Resident Liaison Officers patrol and issue fines to offenders.
Litter is rubbish such as paper, cans and bottles left lying in an open area or public place. Littering can take on many forms, from leaving rubbish behind after a picnic or not securing a load carried on a trailer or ute.
If you don't like seeing litter and would like to do something about it, please register with Keep Australia Beautiful Adopt-a-Spot.
Illegal dumping is deliberate littering in:
- Streets
- Parks
- Building sites bins
- Vacant land
- Bushland
- Reserves
- Industrial and building sites
- Outside building shops and median strips.
Investigations into littering which are either found through regular patrols, or reported, can lead to an infringement or court prosecution.
You can report illegal dumping by calling (08) 9394 5000 or by email. Please provide as much detail as possible including registration plates, make of vehicle and description of offender and items dumped.
