Current Service Interruptions.

NAWMA acknowledges the ongoing service issues and delays to residential bin collections in the City of Salisbury, City of Playford and Town of Gawler.

NAWMA’s current collection contractor, Veolia, has struggled to maintain the number of drivers required to appropriately service kerbside bin collections for the City of Salisbury, City of Playford and Town of Gawler. These driver shortages are causing delays to the collection of general waste (red-lid) and recycling (yellow-lid) bins.

A different collections contractor, Solo, is already subcontracted for the collection of FOGO (green-lid) bins.

NAWMA continues to work closely with Veolia to address driver shortages and ensure service disruption is minimised, and to ensure residents are notified of delays and interruptions as soon as possible.

We understand the frustration and inconvenience caused by delays and missed collections, and the disruption this has caused to the daily lives of residents of the City of Salisbury, City of Playford and Town of Gawler. We thank everyone for their patience and understanding as we continue to address these challenges.

Please check our Facebook page for the latest service interruptions.  If there are no current service interruptions in your area and your bin has not been emptied, please log your missed bin here.
