Break fee and service cancellation fees
If you need to terminate your agreement with us before the expiry, or you no longer require our service, you may be required to pay a break fee and/or other service cancellation charges:
| Equipment Collection Fee | $150 plus GST per piece of equipment and all related equipment removal costs. |
|---|---|
| CES Equipment Rental | We reserve right to claim 50% of rental fees for the remainder of term until we are able to rent out the equipment to another customer. |
| Account Closing Fee | $60 plus GST. |
Missed or unsuccessful service
Being able to collect your bin on schedule is essential to delivering a safe, reliable service. An unsuccessful service is an instance where we are unable to complete collection through no fault of Cleanaway, and as a result the service charge will be applied to your account and we will contact you to reschedule.
It is easy to avoid this charge by simply making your bins available for collection on your service day, at the agreed location and not contaminated, overloaded, blocked or locked. If the current scheduled service doesn’t align with your waste collection needs, please call 13 13 39 to rearrange the service to better suit you.
Waste Tracker
From 1 July 2021 an important change in environmental laws in Victoria came into effect impacting reportable priority waste (RPW). Fees and costs associated with compliance to Victoria’s Waste Tracker legislation will be applied where relevant.
Paper invoicing
Customers have the choice of receiving an invoice either electronically or by mail. Where a customer selects to have invoices mailed a charge of $3 will be applied to each invoice.
Waste Plus
When you have more waste than you had planned, Waste Plus allows you to temporarily exceed your contracted weight limit. A charge to cover the costs associated with the additional material will be added to your invoice. Bin weight technology means Waste Plus can now be applied to overfull Organics and Commingle Recycling bins, on both front and rear lift systems.
