05.01.2022 WHICH BIN FOR FOOD SCRAPS? Knowing what to put in which bin can be confusing! The waste system is not the same for all Councils across the state and this means that state-wide marketing can lead to some cross contamination occurring.... For example, food scraps - our Council region does not take food scraps in our Green Bins as they contaminate the green waste material. This means that the material cannot become garden mulch and instead adds to expensive landfill. Whilst we are working towards a system that also accepts food waste, we ask that you continue to look at other options to reduce your food waste and consider non-landfill options before adding them to your red bin as a final option. For more information on green waste and food scraps, please see our website https://www.berribarmera.sa.gov.au///food-scraps-which-bin

We are working hard to get this information to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your questions and your patience in relation to the current COVID-19 Stay at Home Direction. This sudden change in Direction is based upon new information that we have received in relation to the Parafield Cluster. We understand this may cause some confusion and we'll endeavour to provide you with information as it becomes available. Our actions have been based upon health advice to ensure the safety of the South Australian community and we thank the public for their support and patience during this period. Here is what we can tell you: As of 12pm today, Friday 20 November 2020 exercise outside of your home with members of your household is permitted. Masks are not mandatory but are encouraged. Schools will re-open on Monday 23 November 2020. We will continue to review all Directions with the aim to open the borders to VIC on 1 December as originally planned and further open our state by reducing restrictions. As of 12:01am on Sunday 22 November (Midnight Saturday) we will revert back to similar restrictions that were in place on Monday 16 November 2020. This includes: 1 person per 4 square metres will apply. No dancing or vertical consumption. Updated gathering provision numbers being: Onsite purchase and consumption of food and beverages- 100 people maximum and no more than 10 people at each table. Funerals- 50 people maximum Weddings- 150 people maximum and registration of all guests with SA Health Religious ceremonies (not including a wedding or funeral)- 100 people maximum Private gatherings- 50 people maximum Private residence- 10 people per house (unless more than 10 people permanently reside at the residence) All food and beverages will need to be consumed while seated.
