We have changed our commercial waste service to match our residential service.

  • 1 x 240 litre recycling bin, collected fortnightly

Bins are no longer collected weekly or twice weekly.

Paying for collections

From 1 July 2026, Council is introducing a separate waste charge for properties that use this service.

For most commercial properties, your Council rates will go down, and you will see a separate waste charge of $421 listed on your 2026–­­27 rates notice.

Annual fees for any extra bins will also appear on your rates notice.

If your property does not use Council's waste service, you will not receive the separate waste charge of $421. You will be charged the Public Waste Service Rate. This rate is paid by all commercial and residential properties to help cover the cost of managing illegally dumped rubbish and collection of public bins across Monash. 

Moving to a private service provider

Depending on how much rubbish you have, you may need to move to a private waste collection service.

Contact us if you are moving to a private service provider, and we will adjust your 2026–27 rates notice.
