No changes to garbage and recycling collection this Festive Season
Lithgow Council advises that garbage and recycling collections will occur as normal during the Christmas & New Year period.
All residents should put their bins out as usual. Residents are reminded that their bins should be placed on the kerb the night before collection to ensure early morning collection is possible.
Christmas break is a great time to concentrate on recycling correctly. Don’t forget to recycle any glass, aluminium cans, cardboard & wrapping paper you might have by placing them in your bin with the yellow lid.
The most common forms of contamination are bottles and containers containing liquid and food scraps, and bagged recycling. To prevent contamination, make sure that bottles and containers are emptied, and recycling is placed in the yellow lidded bin loose.
