The mobile service take place at Morris Park on Rodd Street in Canowindra.
Testing is free and will available on July 9 from 10am to 2.30pm and residents don't need a referral or appointment to attend.
Director of Public Health Priscilla Stanley said we need to keep testing people to stay on top of the coronavirus as general restrictions around movement ease.
"Our staff will be able to come to you, do a short assessment and get your details, and then do a swab from the back of your throat and then the back of your nose," she said.
"People who are tested are asked to self-isolate until they get their results."
Test results will be sent away for analysis which takes about 48 hours.
Anyone who is experiencing mild symptoms including fever, sore or 'scratchy' throat, cough, runny nose, shortness of breath, tiredness and muscle aches are encouraged to get tested.
