What goes where: takeaway coffee cups

Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).

The waterproof plastic lining means a standard takeaway cup cannot be recycled kerbside. The lid is sometimes recyclable if it is rigid plastic, but the cup itself is not.

Avoid: Don't assume a paper-looking cup is recyclable. A reusable cup avoids the problem entirely.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as contamination?

Contamination means putting the wrong items in the recycling bin: food-soiled packaging, soft plastics, clothing, electrical items, or anything not specifically accepted kerbside. High contamination can cause an entire truck load to be sent to landfill.

What happens if I miss bin night?

Recycling and garden organics are collected fortnightly in many councils, so a missed night can mean waiting two weeks. Some councils let you report an overflowing bin for a special collection. Check your council's website for their missed collection process.

Can I put my bins in any spot on the kerb?

Place bins on the footpath or nature strip near the kerb, with the lid opening facing the road, and leave a gap of about half a metre around each one. Trucks with an automated arm need clear space and cannot reach bins blocked by cars, poles, or trees.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling doesn't clean itself. A 10-second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps your bin from becoming a science experiment.
  • Wishful recycling isn't recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best isn't recycling. It's contamination. When in doubt, it's general waste.
