Frequently asked questions
Can I get a larger or extra bin?
City of Joondalup offers larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as big families or medical needs, usually for a fee. Contact the council's waste team; if you are new to Edgewater, check what size is standard first, since upgrade policies differ between councils.

Quick tips for bin night
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Edgewater the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and City of Joondalup's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Edgewater households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
