Hard rubbish collection update:

We are experiencing delays to our hard rubbish and bundled branch collections (including the collection of Christmas trees) due to many bookings over the holiday period. If your scheduled collection has been impacted, please leave it on your nature strip and it will be collected as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience and apologise for any delays.

Elster Creek Catchment

We're working with the City of Port Phillip, Bayside City Council, City of Kingston and Melbourne Water to tackle the impact of flooding in the Elster Creek Catchment. 

The catchment covers around 40 square kilometres across the four councils, most of which is within Glen Eira.

What is the working group doing?

All parties in the working group have signed the Elster Creek Catchment Memorandum of Understanding (PDF, 823KB), committing to core principles to address the problem.

They've also established the Elster Creek Catchment Flood Management Plan 2019-2024 (PDF, 5.4MB), which works under the key themes of:

  • one catchment, one plan
  • strategic planning
  • informed communities.
