Lake Macquarie City Council is considering a shake-up of the bulk waste kerbside collection service.
Under the proposal, residents will be able to book a pick-up date which suits them to dispose of 2 cubic metres of waste, or collect two vouchers a year to drop off rubbish at the Awaba Waste Management Facility.
If adopted, the new system will start next year.
Council expects the move will save an average of $500,000 a year in the next decade.
Residents can provide feedback on the idea until April 18 via Council's website.
