Mobile APP

Another way to keep informed about events, places of interest in our community, and to receive useful reminders direct to your phone, is by downloading the free My Local Services App from the Local Government Association or the App store.

Simply set the App with Berri Barmera Council as your home Council and decide which reminders you would like to receive. You can set the app to let you know about waste collection days, consultation opportunities, Council meetings or due dates for animal registration. By using the app, you will never put out the wrong bin again!

The App can also be used to access up to date information about events happening all around the state and uses GPS to inform you about local points of interest like libraries and parks.

You can also Report an Issue, and include a photo and GPS coordinates for the location.
