Frequently asked questions

What happens if I miss bin night?

Recycling and garden organics are collected fortnightly in many councils, so a missed night can mean waiting two weeks. Some councils let you report an overflowing bin for a special collection. Check your council's website for their missed collection process.

Can I put broken glass in the recycling bin?

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.

Why was my bin not collected?

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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Empty it before you bin it. A half-full bottle leaks through the paper and cardboard sharing its bin. Drain liquids first and the whole load stays cleaner.
  • Wishful recycling isn't recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best isn't recycling. It's contamination. When in doubt, it's general waste.
  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin. There is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
