Council is pleased to announce that repairs to the Michelago Bank of Bins are now complete and the facility will reopen on Friday 13 June 2025.
This marks the end of a months-long closure, which began in January 2025 due to extensive vandalism and resulting public safety concerns.
Council appreciates the community's patience during the closure. To support residents through the upcoming transition, the temporary Saturday morning waste collection service will continue to operate until Saturday 21 June 2025.
Residents are asked to assist in managing demand during the initial reopening period by limiting their disposal volume, and to be mindful of increased activity at the site from next Friday. Households may dispose of up to 120 litres of waste and 120 litres of recycling each week at the Michelago Bank of Bins.
Service user access codes have been updated. Subscribed households will receive their new code by post, with letters having gone out earlier this week. Please contact Council if you are a paid user and do not receive a letter with a new access code by Friday 13 June 2025.
For residents with disposal needs beyond the 120 litre waste and recycling limits, please visit the nearby Bredbo Transfer Station or one of Council's other waste facilities across the region to dispose of any large loads or excess waste and recycling.
Patrons are asked to be courteous and mindful of neighbouring homes in the area, and to please limit noise and disturbance as much as possible when accessing the Michelago Bank of Bins.
Council looks forward to welcoming the Michelago community back to the Bank of Bins from Friday 13 June 2025.
