Recycling rule worth knowing

Return soft plastics to a collection point rather than the kerb.

Bags, wrappers and films tangle in machinery and cannot be processed in kerbside recycling. Dedicated drop-off programs handle them separately when they are running.

Example: Bread bags, pasta packets and bubble wrap: collect them at home and take them to a participating retailer.

Frequently asked questions

What is FOGO and does it apply here?

FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Gladstone Regional's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.

Why was my bin in Boyne Island 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. Gladstone Regional has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.

What happens to bins on public holidays?

It depends on the holiday and the council. When Gladstone Regional shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Boyne Island bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
  • Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Gladstone Regional collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
