Why aren’t there bins in all campgrounds?
- Bins attract rodents, feral cats and foxes – which are unwelcomed visitors in campgrounds and the fragile coastal environment.
- It has also been found that when bins are provided at the campground, rubbish piles up next to the bins and often ends up scattered along the shore and in the ocean. The rubbish left behind damages the environment, poses danger to our native animals and is unpleasant for subsequent visitors.
- To protect our coastline and campgrounds, most bin facilities have been located away from the coastline. The chosen rubbish collection points locations are also accessible by service vehicles, making collection possible and more frequent.
- Only 2 campgrounds (Gleesons Landing and Burners Beach) have bin banks at the actual ground. These were established well before the current Bush Camping system and have been allowed to remain. The other campgrounds are serviced by numerous bin banks and skip bins placed seasonally. See above list.
