Aluminium can be recycled back into new cans in as little as 60 days.
Recycling aluminium uses 95% less energy than making it from raw materials. Rinsed cans in the yellow bin are among the most valuable materials councils recover.
Every Australian state and territory now runs a container deposit scheme, paying 10 cents for eligible drink containers returned to a depot or reverse vending machine. Containers you redeem this way are kept separate from your kerbside recycling.
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs or even different councils near a boundary. Always confirm by entering your own address rather than copying a neighbour's schedule.
Most councils say bins should be at the kerb by 6 AM on collection day but can go out the evening before. Keep them off the road and clear of driveways, parked cars, and other bins.
The neighbouring streets have their own schedules. Here's what's happening nearby.
