The South Burnett Regional Council has advised that all landfills / waste facilities throughout the region are closed until further notice due to flooding.

However residents should continue to place their wheelie bins out for collection (if it’s safe to do so) the night before their usual collection day.

Council will endeavour to collect them, however there may be some collection delays until the situation normalises.

Council thanks residents for their patience.
