What matters for removals & rubbish in Canberra

  • Canberra has no scheduled kerbside hard waste collection. Each household instead gets one free bulky waste collection of up to two cubic metres per financial year, booked online up to six months ahead with bookings closing 14 days before, and nothing longer than two metres or left in a garage, behind a gate or under a carport will be taken.

  • Under the ACT Litter Act 2004 littering costs an individual $1,000 and a business $5,000, and aggravated littering that could injure someone rises to $5,000 and $25,000 plus up to six months imprisonment. Dumping concrete in a public place or open private land without consent is up to $7,500.

  • The ACT does not publish its own list of banned incoming items, and the national domestic quarantine guide treats NSW and the ACT as one destination, so in practice the NSW entry rules apply to a move into Canberra.

  • Moving plants out of the ACT is the part that catches Canberrans out. You need a Plant Health Certificate from ACT Biosecurity, inspections are booked on 02 6207 3587, and you have to meet the entry conditions of whichever state the plants are going to.
