Report a problem
For non-urgent and general requests, report the problem online.
Council only accepts customer service requests through our Customer Contact Centre and established Report a Problem form.
If you choose to report anonymously your issue may not be investigated and Council cannot contact you.
If you are not directly involved with the issue (e.g. you heard about it from a neighbour), the report will remain anonymous. This means Council is unable to contact you and the issue may not be investigated.
Live chat
Talk to one of our customer service team on live chat (on the bottom / right-hand side of our website).
Monday to Friday, 8:30 am - 4:30 pm NSW time
(closed weekends and public holidays)
Do not use live chat:
- for technical enquiries (such as building and planning advice)
- if ID is needed (rates, water, bins or application enquiries)
- for urgent issues, such as animal attacks
- for urgent water or sewer issues (for example leaks and outages)
For any of the above call 02 6670 2400 as these enquiries cannot be resolved over live chat.

Call-back feature and number for outbound calls
Did you know we have a call-back feature to save you waiting on hold?
When you ring us, depending on our availability to answer the call quickly, you may be given the option to select a call back rather than waiting - your position in the queue is held and one of our Customer Service Officers will call you on the number you provide.
The number that will show up when we call is 02 6675 1000. This is different to the regular Council number as it's routed through the contact centre software we use. If you use our call back service regularly, you could save the number to your phone so you always know it's us.
