owner’s permission.
5.4 Invalid garden waste recycling service
An invalid garden waste recycling service may be requested by an owner or occupier of premises
receiving a garden waste recycling service, where there is no person on the premises physically
capable of presenting a bin on the footpath for service on collection day.
Council may require the owner or occupier to provide a medical certificate to confirm their incapacity
to maneuver a garden waste recycling bin to the defined collection point on the footpath.
