Alice Springs Town Council uses separate kerbside collections for rubbish. Choose an exact address for its dates and service eligibility. Collections Day checks the Town's official street table and returns a day only for one unqualified, serviced street. Roads marked no service or divided by a cross street or number parity are withheld.

Common questions
Quick answers
How do I find Alice Springs Town Council collection dates?
Choose the exact property above. The private result uses the council's official collection information after that selection, rather than guessing from a suburb or postcode.
Can soft plastics go in the recycling bin?
No. Keep plastic bags, film and wrappers out of mixed recycling and use an appropriate drop-off service where one is available.
Does this council collect food scraps at the kerb?
Not as a standard service shown in this guide. Check the official council source for future changes or property-specific options.
