Pet limits, mould and pollen: looking after a Brunswick home

How many pets can live in a Brunswick flat?

Merri-bek City Council’s pet limits depend on the type of home. Without an excess animal permit, a flat, unit, apartment or townhouse can keep one dog and one cat over 3 months old; other homes can keep two of each. A permit lasts 5 years unless you register more animals or move to a new property, so check it again when you change address.

Cat owners have a date to note too. Under Merri-bek’s cat curfew, from 1 April 2027 cats registered before then must stay on the owner’s property from 7pm to 7am, and cats registered after it at all times. An indoor cat leaves more fur on carpets, skirting boards and sills, so book carpet cleaning with your move-out clean. In an apartment, tell us about lifts, parking and where the cleaner can unload when you book.

Condensation and mould: what helps

The Better Health Channel says the way to control indoor mould is to control moisture: use exhaust fans or open windows when showering, cooking or running the dishwasher, wipe condensation from windows and shower glass, and move furniture away from walls. Mould can also grow in carpet and curtains. Our end of lease clean includes mould removal in the bathroom, though not ceiling mould.

Grass pollen season

Victoria’s grass pollen season usually runs from 1 October to 31 December, and the Better Health Channel points to the Melbourne Pollen Count and Forecast for daily levels.

Bins, bulky waste and tips in Brunswick

Useful if you are moving in or out. Collection days, hard waste rules and tip fees are set by the council or government service responsible for your address, so use their official links below.

Merri-bek City Council

Merri-bek City Council runs household bins and booked hard waste collections. It does not run its own tip; it lists a private transfer station nearby.

  • Council (general enquiries and bins, 24 hours) 03 9240 1111
  • Hard waste bookings (WM Waste Management, the council’s contractor) 9721 1915

Check your bin collection day Search your address in the waste collection calendar.

Households have a red-lid general rubbish bin (weekly; some addresses are in a fortnightly trial), a yellow-lid recycling bin (fortnightly), a light-green-lid food and garden organics (FOGO) bin (weekly) and a purple-lid glass bin (every 4 weeks). Developments of four or more homes share some bins.

In multi-unit developments with council bins, each unit can book its own hard waste collection.

Booked hard waste collection

  • Who and how much: eligibility goes with the property (where the waste charge is paid and council bins are used), so tenants can book. Each financial year: two collections of up to 1 cubic metre, or one of 2 cubic metres.
  • Limits: items under 1.5 m that two people can lift; one mattress and bed base per household.
  • Not collected: asbestos, chemicals, fuels, building and renovation materials, tyres, batteries, paint and oil, gas bottles, commercial waste, and household rubbish or recycling. Full list.
  • Booking notice: the council asks you to plan ahead, as bookings can usually be made within a 2 to 4 week timeframe. Paid extra collections ($100 per cubic metre, $200 for 2) booked and paid before 3 pm Thursday are collected the following week.
  • Book: call WM on 9721 1915 or book online.

Tips, transfer stations and drop-off

  • East Brunswick Transfer Station (privately run), 32 Kirkdale Street, Brunswick East. Hours: weekdays 7 am to 3.45 pm; weekends 9 am to 12.45 pm. The council advises checking accepted items and charges with the operator (9389 5100). Operator

Planning a move-out

Merri-bek says bookings can usually be made within a 2 to 4 week timeframe, so book as soon as you know your moving date. Have items collected before your end of lease clean and key handover. If the collection would be too late, take items to a transfer station (fees apply) or arrange a rubbish removal service.

Moving day in Brunswick: parking, skips and unwanted furniture

Brunswick is in the area of Merri-bek City Council. Here’s what it publishes about moving day.

  • In streets with timed parking, removalists can use a Merri-bek service permit to park all day (up to 4 weeks). You can apply, or the removalist can with your written consent; attach proof of address and the removalist’s quote. It doesn’t allow parking in clearways, no-stopping or loading zones.
  • Skips need a permit arranged by an accredited hire company (7 days’ notice before each placement) and aren’t allowed on footpaths or nature strips. Shipping containers can’t be stored on roads or public land.
  • Council’s “Donate your goods” advice names the Brotherhood of St Laurence and St Vincent de Paul furniture collections, and reminds you not to leave donations outside closed charity shops.

In Victoria, it’s illegal to put e-waste in household rubbish, so take old electronics to an e-waste drop-off.
