It takes a plastic bottle centuries to break down in landfill.
The same bottle, recycled, can become new packaging, clothing fibre or carpet within months. Rigid plastic bottles are one of the easiest wins in the yellow bin.
Some councils offer larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as large families or medical needs. There's usually a fee. Contact your council's waste services team directly.
Unbroken glass bottles and jars belong in recycling. Broken glass is a safety hazard for sorting staff and collection workers. Wrap it in newspaper, place it in a sealed bag, and put it in the general waste bin instead.
Common reasons include: the bin lid wasn't fully closed, the bin wasn't at the kerb before the truck passed, there was contamination in the recycling bin, or the bin was blocking the truck's mechanical arm. Your council's website usually has a missed collection form.
Nearby suburbs have their own bin schedules. Here are the ones closest to you.
