If you live in Camden, be warned, you could soon have to put your bins out on a different day.
Camden Council says it must change its waste collection routes to cater to the challenge of a growing community.
It has announced that for some residents the changes will mean a new collection day for their weekly pick up – starting from Friday, June 23.
Those who are impacted will receive a letter outlining the changes, as well as a reminder letter two weeks before the new collection routes start.
Residents can also look at council’s interactive online map to see if their collection day is changing at bit.ly/mycollectionday.
Mayor of Camden, Cr Ashleigh Cagney, pictured above, said the changes were put in place following an extensive review of waste collection.
“We are one of the fastest growing areas in Australia, and so it’s important that we continuously look at how we are doing things and see where we can improve in the context of that growth,” she said.
“These changes help ensure an even spread of collections across the week and they account for the future growth precincts of areas like Bringelly and Leppington.
“That means they will allow us to better serve you, not only now, but also into the future.
“We know for some this will mean a change in their habitual weekly routine of taking the bins out, and we appreciate you working with us as we make these improvements for the entire Camden area,” Mayor Cagney said.
