4.0 WASTE BIN STORAGE AND HANDLING


Each tenant is responsible for moving their own waste to the bin storage facility where the
rubbish bins will pick up once per week. The bin storage area will be accessible for tenants
on foot. The caretaker will wheel the bins out from the storage areas for the waste collection
vehicle to collect.


The bin storage area is to be designed to meet the minimum requirements as provided in
Noosa Council PSP, Schedule 6.10.5 – Waste management design criteria.


4.1   Waste Collection

Building Management is responsible for coordinating waste collection with the waste collection
service provider and/or Council.


Waste collection for the development is proposed to be undertaken on site, with waste
collection vehicles entering and exiting the site in a forward direction. Servicing will be
undertaken using a rear loader waste collection vehicle (HRV) suitable for emptying 2 m³
bins, with a total service frequency of one (1) collection of the eleven (11) bins per week.


The design vehicle for waste servicing has smaller turning path and height requirements than
the 12.5 m HRV and 18m AV design vehicles and is appropriate for the internal access roads
and service areas provided. Vehicle access, turning and manoeuvring have been designed to
ensure that waste collection vehicles can safely enter, service the bins, and exit the site
without reversing onto the public road. Manoeuvring paths are provided in Appendix B.


The bin storage and collection areas are located on the ground level in close proximity to the
internal service route. These areas are generally level to facilitate the safe handling and
movement of the 2 m³ bins to the waste collection vehicle, minimising manual handling
requirements and potential safety risks.


There is no expected adverse impact on the amenity associated with the collection of waste
from the development. Waste collection can be conducted in line with Noosa Council
requirements.
