Fortnightly Rubbish Pickups
Any person with a Domestic Rubbish Pickup is entitled to have a fortnightly rubbish pickup. If commenced at the start of a financial year the full rebate will be deducted from the Rates Notice. If commenced during the year a pro-rata rebate will be issued in the form of a cheque.
