Residents in Strathbogie Shire can now access roadside firewood collection permits with the season open from 1 September, 2022 to 30 November, 2022.
Roadside Firewood Collection permits are available at Council Customer Service locations, 109A Binney Street, Euroa and 293 High Street, Nagambie and cost $18 per cubic metre.
Strathbogie Shire Council Mayor Cr Laura Binks said dead and fallen timber were an important habitat for our native flora and fauna.
“This means that firewood collection for domestic use is only permitted on medium conservation roadsides throughout the municipality,” Cr Binks said.
“Our website features a handy mapping overlay which shows the roads where firewood is permitted to be collected or you can simply contact council to determine which roadsides are suitable for collection.”
Residents are reminded firewood collection is not permitted on any roads managed by VicRoads.
