Frequently asked questions
How often is recycling collected in Canning Vale?
City of Gosnells collects recycling fortnightly. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.
Can I recycle pizza boxes?
A clean, dry pizza box is fine in the yellow bin. If the base is soaked with grease, tear off and recycle the clean lid and put the greasy half in general waste. This rule is the same across every WA council, City of Gosnells included.
Where exactly should the bin go on the kerb?
On the footpath or nature strip close to the kerb, lid opening facing the street, with about half a metre clear on each side. The trucks City of Gosnells runs use an automated arm, and bins in Canning Vale blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.

Quick tips for bin night
- Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Canning Vale means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Canning Vale the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- 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.
