Seniors

Senior residents have a lot to offer the Launceston municipality — their experience and knowledge, as well as their social contribution, help make our city an even better place to call home or visit.

The City of Launceston SmartCard

The City of Launceston SmartCard is a way for eligible pensioners living within the Launceston municipality to access key Council facilities including the Launceston Waste Centre, Nunamara and Lilydale Waste Transfer Stations and multi-storey car parks.

Pensioners who hold a PCC (Pensioner Concession Card) or a DVA (Department of Veterans Affairs card) with the letters ‘TPI’ or the words ‘War Widow’ and live in the Launceston Municipality. Waste concession is available per household, parking concession is available per eligible pensioner. Health Care Card (HCC) holders are not eligible.
