YOUR KERBSIDE BINS
For further information contact the NAWMA Customer Service Centre
on 8259 2100 or visitnawma.sa.gov.au
BIN COLLECTION DAYTo check your bin collection day visit the NAWMA website or call the Customer Service Centre.
Bins should be placed on the kerb by 7.00am of the collection day. Please keep them clear of parked vehicles and other obstructions such as trees and electricity poles so that our contractor can access them.
The only three public holidays that affect your collection days are New Year’s Day, Good Friday and Christmas Day. There are no collections on these days and therefore all collections roll forward one day until the end of the affected week (note: Friday collections will occur on Saturdays).
ABOUT NAWMAThe Northern Adelaide Waste Management Authority manages kerbside collection services for waste, recycling and food & garden organics for more than 100,000 properties in the Salisbury, Playford and Gawler Council areas.
To minimise the volume of waste sent to landfi ll, NAWMA recovers reusable materials for recycling and composting. Please help us to achieve good environmental outcomes by using your bins correctly.
DID YOU KNOW ?Around 80,000 tonnes of waste are sent to the Uleybury landfi ll each year. You can help to reduce this amount by minimizing waste.
Many items including waste oil, car batteries, fl uorescent lights and x-rays can be recycled at NAWMA’s Resource Recovery Centres at Edinburgh North and Pooraka.
