Did you know?
Garden organics diverted from landfill become compost and mulch.
A full, clean green-lid bin is genuinely valuable. The material is processed into soil amendment used on farms, council parks, and revegetation projects.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Donnybrook?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Moreton Bay runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.
Can I recycle pizza boxes?
A clean, dry pizza box is fine in the yellow bin. If the base is soaked with grease, tear off and recycle the clean lid and put the greasy half in general waste. This rule is the same across every QLD council, Moreton Bay included.
What goes in the green bin?
Grass clippings, leaves, small branches and prunings. If Moreton Bay runs a FOGO service, food scraps can join them in an approved compostable liner; if the lid says garden organics only, keep food out. When unsure, check the lid sticker or the council website.

Quick tips for bin night
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Donnybrook bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Moreton Bay's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Donnybrook the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
