A Free Tipping Weekend has been confirmed for October 5, 6 and 7 – the October long weekend.
This will allow all residential customers to utilise the waste management facilities for free (even if they do not have a voucher). Running the event in October also allows all residents to clear their properties of unwanted items just prior to the cyclone season in order to reduce the risk of wind-blown debris.
The October free tipping weekend will be part of a larger overarching ‘Waste Wise’ marketing campaign.
By combining different initiatives under a single umbrella a broad reaching campaign will be delivered that is stronger than its individual elements.
