Bulk collections

The City of Wanneroo provides two bulk collections per year:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • Waste should be placed on the verge no longer than one week before the collection date. 
  • If you see our waste team in your area before the due date for pickup, this will be for a pre-clean of the area. 
  • Do not follow your neighbour. Please check your collection dates. Crews will not return if you miss your collection.
  • Do not place your waste under trees, over sprinklers or on vacant lots and park lands.
  • Please place waste at least 1 metre away from fences, walls, mail boxes, public utilities, power domes, water meters and sprinklers to avoid damage. 
  • Keep footpaths and driveways clear.
  • Do not place items on light coloured paving and artificial turf. Vehicles can leave marks on paving. We do not collect items placed on artificial turf.
  • If your property is situated in a laneway, please place it in one of the visitor's car park bays at the front of your home. If you have any further questions, please contact Waste Services on 9405 5000.

Bulk waste collection schedule

The City is able to keep approximately 40% of bulk waste out of landfill, thanks to changes in how we dispose of your waste. Residents can assist our team by stacking mattresses and scrap steel separately. You can also use our A-Z guide for more information about where to recycle your items.

We collect

  • Mattresses (these are collected separately by a City approved contractor).
  • Stoves and other white goods (up to 1.5 metres in length/width).
  • Scrap steel.
  • Furniture.
  • Bulky household items.

We do not collect

  • General household waste (i.e. nappies, food stuff).
  • Flammable liquids, gas cylinders.
  • Tree prunings/stumps/logs.
  • Bricks, building rubble, cement/concrete, sand.
  • Pallets, fence sheeting, asbestos products. 
  • Paint, chemicals, oils.
  • Plate glass, shower screens, glass table-tops, any other glass.
  • Batteries, e-waste and other hazardous items.
  • Tyres, car bodies, vehicle parts.
  • Agricultural waste.
  • Any liquids.
  • Any item exceeding 1.5 metres in length/width or excessively heavy.

Please note: We do not service vacant lots, commercial properties, reserves/parks and properties not receiving a domestic rubbish collection service. 

Just because you don’t need it anymore doesn’t mean someone else won’t treasure it. 

Consider giving your unwanted items a new home by donating to charity. 

"Don't leave them outside"

Make your donations count. Give your donations a chance to find new homes. Don't leave them out in the cold!

Tree lopper services

The City of Wanneroo is aware that some tree loppers have been advertising directly to residents that green waste collections are commencing in their suburb soon.

Please be aware that the City of Wanneroo does not have commercial agreements or relationships with tree loppers or any other contractors in relation to green waste collections. The City will not return for tree loppings placed on verges after the collection service has been through the area. Please ensure you are aware of the City's collection dates in your area and have all your green waste out for collection within specified guidelines.
