Green space, green bin. The garden organics collection is more useful here than you might think.

Frequently asked questions

How often is recycling collected?

In many councils, recycling is collected every two weeks, often alternating with garden organics. Some areas run weekly recycling, and a few run weekly general waste with fortnightly everything else. Enter your address above to find your specific schedule.

Can I put my bins in any spot on the kerb?

Place bins on the footpath or nature strip near the kerb, with the lid opening facing the road, and leave a gap of about half a metre around each one. Trucks with an automated arm need clear space and cannot reach bins blocked by cars, poles, or trees.

What goes in the green bin?

Green-lid bins typically take garden waste: grass clippings, leaves, small branches, and prunings. If your council runs a FOGO (Food Organics and Garden Organics) service, food scraps can go in too, usually in an approved compostable liner.

Quick tips for bin night

  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it won't shut, it won't go.
  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any kerbside bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a collection point instead. Future you, and the truck driver, will thank you.
  • Check your bin before bin night. Bin night is not the time to discover your bin is still full from last fortnight. A quick check the day before saves you a very long fortnight.
