Aluminium can be recycled back into new cans in as little as 60 days.

Frequently asked questions

What goes in the yellow recycling bin?

Paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminium cans, and rigid plastic containers like bottles, tubs and trays. Soft plastics, food waste and contaminated packaging do not belong in it anywhere in QLD.

What do I do with old electronics?

Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Australia, and Mackay Regional lists its e-waste drop off options online, usually the local transfer station plus periodic collection events. Officeworks takes computers, phones and cables in most areas.

Why was my bin in Andergrove not collected?

The usual reasons: the lid was not fully closed, the bin was out after the truck passed, contamination was spotted in the recycling, or the truck arm could not reach past a parked car. Mackay Regional has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.

Quick tips for bin night

  • The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Andergrove households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
  • Loose, not bagged. Tip recycling in loose. A tied bag cannot be opened on the sorting line, so the whole lot gets treated as rubbish. The bag defeats the entire point.
  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling does not clean itself. A ten second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps a Andergrove bin from becoming a science experiment between fortnightly collections.
