Let’s talk rubbish: Have your say on hard waste service

Cardinia Shire Council is seeking community feedback on its bookable hard waste service.

Cardinia Shire Council is seeking community feedback on its bookable hard waste service to determine current service awareness and satisfaction levels.

On 1 July 2020, the council moved from a blanket collection service twice yearly to a bookable service available year-round.

The bookable service is available to every household in Cardinia Shire that gets its bins collected by the council.

Each household, including rental properties, can book two free hard waste collections per calendar year.

Existing service users will soon receive an email with a satisfaction survey to complete.

Council is also seeking general feedback from other residents who have not yet used the bookable hard waste service.

These service awareness and satisfaction surveys will provide council with information about existing awareness levels and knowledge about the service, what the barriers are to service take up, current service user satisfaction levels and the ways the service is being currently used.

The survey results will help inform any service adjustments (within contractual scope) and communications activities required to improve service awareness, take up, correct usage, and satisfaction.

To provide your feedback on the bookable hard waste service before Tuesday 12 August, complete the online survey at cardinia.vic.gov.au/haveyoursay
