Did you know?

Over 1 billion coffee cups are used in Australia each year, and very few are recyclable.

The plastic lining makes standard takeaway cups non-recyclable in kerbside bins. Compostable alternatives are growing, but need commercial composting facilities to process properly.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put the bin out the night before?

Yes, and it is the safer habit. West Torrens asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Brooklyn Park can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.

What happens if I miss bin night in Brooklyn Park?

General waste catches up next week, but West Torrens collects recycling and garden organics fortnightly, so a missed night there can mean a two week wait. If a bin is overflowing as a result, West Torrens may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Yes. South Australia has run container deposits since 1977, 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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Know your fortnight. Brooklyn Park alternates its fortnightly bins, and guessing wrong is the classic move. The neighbours' kerb on bin morning is the traditional answer; an address search is the reliable one.
