As the local government elections will be held on 26 October 2024, Yarra Ranges Council will assume a caretaker role from Tuesday 17 September 2024. During the caretaker period, there will be limited changes made to the content on Council's websites. Information will only be added to this website in accordance with caretaker requirements.
Council's Community Waste and Resource Recovery Plan 2023-2030 outlines how bin collections and waste systems will change for our community over coming years.
The document, formed using thousands of community members' comments, has been prepared as a result of the State Government's Recycling Victoria Policy, which will introduce new waste streams to collect food organics and garden organics (FOGO) and glass, along with items for landfill and other recyclables.
It outlines ambitious targets for Council and the Yarra Ranges community to minimise waste and significantly cut the amount sent to landfill.
This Plan was endorsed by Council on Tuesday, 13 June, 2023.
