Tamworth Regional Council water and waste operations manager Dan Coe warned residents about the restrtictions on items dumped for collection.
“The most common incorrect items put out for collection are tyres, fridges and gas bottles,” Mr Coe said.
“We encourage residents to use the service to dispose of household items such as general small household items, broken furniture, bedding and electrical appliances as well as e-waste which includes intact televisions, computers, computer monitors, printers and keyboards.”
He reminded locals to limit their load to about two cubic meters.

Sixty-one per cent of respondents said there should be three collections every years.
While 22 per cent said the schedule of two collections was perfect.
