Frequently asked questions

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Yes. Containers for Change refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in WA, at depots, return machines and bag drop points. Containers you redeem are extra money in your pocket; eligible containers you skip still go in the recycling bin.

How often is recycling collected in Bilingurr?

Shire of Broome 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.

Should I rinse containers before recycling?

A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Bilingurr's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Shire of Broome collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Bilingurr bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
  • Check your bin before bin night. Bin night is not the time to discover the bin is still full from last fortnight. A quick check the day before saves a very long fortnight.
