The ACT Government has announced that catch up rubbish bin collections will take place tomorrow in Braddon, Forrest, Garran, Lyneham, Red Hill, Turner and Yarralumla. Residents of these suburbs are advised to ensure their rubbish bins are out.

Catch up rubbish collections were undertaken in Isaacs today.

Arrangements for the rest of this week are as follows:

Thursday: scheduled services plus Braddon, Forrest, Garran, Lyneham, Red Hill, Turner and Yarralumla

Yeah well of course Ainslie will be “serviced by Friday morning” – Friday morning is normal collection day in Ainslie. FAIL.

Same for Narrabundah, it’s ok we get a discount on our rates to make up for it.
