Nillumbik households can:
- book one free hard waste collection per financial year
- leave out a maximum of two cubic metres of hard waste for collection.
Nillumbik Shire Council provides a hard waste collection service for all households with our waste services.
Our hard waste service provider is WM Waste Management Services.
This service is for damaged items that cannot be repaired or reused or fit in your kerbside landfill bin. Items are recovered and recycled where possible, including metals, household appliances, e-waste/electronics, tools and mattresses.
Support reuse
For unwanted items in good usable condition, find other options to help keep them circulating longer, to support the circular economy and reduce waste to landfill.
- Donate to a local op shop. Call first for bulky items.
- Contact the Reuse Shop in Plenty to see if they will take any of your items.
- Sell or give them away by posting them to:
Extra collections
Extra collections cost $153.60 per collection, plus:
- $27.90 for each mattress or bed base
You can pay for this by credit card over the phone. Prices correct from 1 August 2026.

Request a collection
Orange ‘booked’ stickers are no longer issued. Our collection contractor has a list of booked properties, so a sticker is not needed for collection. Once you've received your booking confirmation email, place your items out on the weekend before your collection date.
