Tips for New Residents

Welcome to our community!

Facebook groups

You’ll hear most of the local news and information in the Mountain Folk facebook group, and on the MNRA facebook page. Join up!

Fire Alarms

The fire alarms are tested monthly, on the same day as the Rezzo’s meeting, on the first Wednesday night of the month. Don’t panic!

Postal service

Many years ago, the local residents decided that picking up their mail from the post office would contribute to a sense of community. Therefore, there is no mail delivered in Mount Nebo. You need to get a post box at the post office.

Rubbish disposal

There’s no rubbish collection in Mount Nebo. You need to take your rubbish to the local tip, the Mount Nebo Waste Transfer Station, on Mount Nebo Road near Dundas Road, 5.6 km past the Post Office, to the north of the Village (towards Mt Glorious). It also has a place to leave still-usable items, for others to take, called “Treasure Island”.

“The Blocks”

You’ll hear locals refer to “the blocks” – that means the streets off Bateson Road, at the north end of the Village.
