Did you know?
Bagged recycling is one of the most common reasons a load is rejected.
Sorting machines and staff cannot open every bag, so anything tied up inside is treated as contamination. Tipping recyclables in loose solves the problem entirely.
Frequently asked questions
Should I rinse containers before recycling?
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Enmore's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.
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 NSW council, Inner West Council included.
Why was my bin in Enmore not collected?
The usual reasons: the lid was not fully closed, the bin was out after the truck passed, contamination was spotted in the recycling, or the truck arm could not reach past a parked car. Inner West Council has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.

Quick tips for bin night
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Enmore the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Loose, not bagged. Tip recycling in loose. A tied bag cannot be opened on the sorting line, so the whole lot gets treated as rubbish. The bag defeats the entire point.
- Summer bins need managing. A Enmore red bin in January is a different beast. Bag food scraps tight, keep the bin in shade if you can, and get it out every single week even when it is barely half full.
