We want to acknowledge the recent issues with the Bulk Waste Collection service, particularly in Lathlain and Carlisle. We understand the frustration and inconvenience this has caused, and we sincerely apologise for the delays.
Unfortunately, a combination of factors has contributed to the disruption. The volume of waste placed out for collection has been significantly higher than expected. In addition, we’ve seen a number of unapproved items—such as mattresses and tyres—being left out, along with instances of illegal dumping.
We are working closely with our contractor to resolve these issues as quickly as possible.
They have advised that the majority of the collection should be completed by this Saturday.
In the meantime, our teams are continuing to sort and remove unapproved items to ensure the area is properly cleared.
We will be providing daily updates until the clean-up is complete. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to restore the level of service you expect and deserve.
Thank you for your continued support.
Mr Carl Askew
CEO Town of Victoria Park
