Australia Day on 26 January and Anzac Day on 25 April are public holidays nationwide. When either lands on a weekday, councils that collect that day often delay the rest of the week by one day.
Tip: If your bin day is mid-week, glance at the council notice the week these dates fall on a weekday.
Yes. CDS Vic refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in VIC, at depots, return machines and bag drop points. Containers you redeem are extra money in your pocket; eligible containers you skip still go in the recycling bin.
No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.
Wellington Shire offers larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as big families or medical needs, usually for a fee. Contact the council's waste team; if you are new to Heyfield, check what size is standard first, since upgrade policies differ between councils.
