What goes where: takeaway coffee cups
Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).
The waterproof plastic lining means a standard takeaway cup cannot be recycled kerbside. The lid is sometimes recyclable if it is rigid plastic, but the cup itself is not.
Avoid: Don't assume a paper-looking cup is recyclable. A reusable cup avoids the problem entirely.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to bins on public holidays?
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Burwood 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.
Why does my neighbour in Croydon Park have a different bin day?
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. Collection days in Croydon Park vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
Should I rinse containers before recycling?
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Croydon Park's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.

Quick tips for bin night
- Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Croydon Park 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 Croydon Park the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Caps off, lids on. Small plastic caps come off the bottle and go in the red bin. Metal lids on glass jars can stay put. It is a small rule that trips up a lot of people.
