Great advice!
Just don't tell city of Rockingham know that your bin blows away in quinns!
You need to contact City of Wanneroo for that 😉⚠️ *URGENT BIN IMPACT UPGRADE* ⚠️
We do not do this lightly.
A deepening low pressure system is going to impact the west coast tomorrow, it poses significant risk to your bin, the contents and your neighbour at number 23.
Unsecured items around the home pose an equal risk, although picking up the wet contents of your bin is far worse.
