Due to unforeseen circumstances, we're unable to complete blue glass recycling collections from Fernhill through to Glenorchy (excluding Moke Lake) today. Red bins will still be collected. Please leave your blue bins out as the team will come collect them tomorrow morning (Saturday 18 April). Thanks for your understanding!
