Paper can be recycled five to seven times before the fibres become too short. Keeping it clean and dry in the yellow bin is what makes that possible.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Ballajura?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. City of Swan runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.
Are the bins different if I rent in Ballajura?
No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever City of Swan supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.
How often is recycling collected in Ballajura?
City of Swan collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

Quick tips for bin night
- Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and City of Swan's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- Summer bins need managing. A Ballajura red bin in January is a different beast. Bag food scraps tight, keep the bin in shade if you can, and get it out every single week even when it is barely half full.
