Changes to Verge Collections

- This change will affect the traditional verge collection areas and dates for some households in Kardinya, Bateman and Bull Creek.
- It is important that you familiarise yourself with the new collection dates for your area, keeping in mind that your area may have changed.
- In response to residents’ suggestions, verge collections for junk will now be scheduled in the drier months.
