We were honoured to support flood clean-up efforts for residents of Kempsey Shire Council and Coffs Harbour City Council where Cleanaway crews worked tirelessly with councils and Defence Australia to collect and dispose of piles of debris and damaged household furniture in record time.

Our front lift trucks and trailers allowed us to move from house to house without the need to travel to the tip to empty individual bins strategically placed around neighbourhoods. All in all, we collected more than 143 tonnes of rubbish from 447 bins, the equivalent of two weeks of work orders!

Area Manager Shane Tildesley thanked the team for their outstanding efforts saying, “The team stood up every day and took on extra work loads without hesitation, a true testament to our Cleanaway value of ‘Stronger Together’. We were glad to be able to support residents and councils recovering from the impact of the devastating storms and return our teams to their families in time for Easter.”
