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. In Blackmans Bay that mostly means Wednesday, though streets near a zone boundary can differ. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
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. Kingborough Council has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.
