FOOTT has been announced as the new waste collection partner for Strathbogie Shire Council, with services commencing from the start of July.
FOOTT will manage the collection of all household waste, recycling, organics and the newly introduced, purple-lidded glass-only bin.
What residents need to know:
- Bin collection days will remain the same, but collection times may shift slightly as FOOTT introduces updated routes and schedules
- Please put bins out the night before collection to avoid missed pickups
- If a bin is missed, or there is an issue, contact Strathbogie Shire Council directly
- For the latest updates, including collection calenders and alerts, download the BinRight Stathbogie App
Mayor Claire Ewart-Kennedy noted that while the transition was expected to go smoothly, some minor disruptions were possible in the early stages.
“As with any changeover, there may be a few teething issues during the first few weeks. We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding,” she said.
“We also thank our residents for embracing the purple-lidded glass bin.
“By separating glass at the kerbside, we reduce contamination in other recycling streams and keep more materials out of landfill.”
