Recycling rule worth knowing

Remove caps and lids from plastic bottles before recycling.

Caps are often a different type of plastic that causes contamination if mixed with the bottle material. Metal screw-top lids on glass jars are the exception and those can stay on.

Example: Milk bottles, shampoo bottles, soft drink bottles: pop the cap off first.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my neighbour in Bellevue Hill have a different bin day?

Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. Collection days in Bellevue Hill vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.

How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Bellevue Hill?

Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Woollahra Municipal 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.

Why was my bin in Bellevue Hill 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. Woollahra Municipal 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 Bellevue Hill households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and Woollahra Municipal tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
