Yes, and it is the safer habit. Brisbane City asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Chermside can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.
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. Brisbane City has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.
