Recycling rule worth knowing
Return soft plastics to a collection point rather than the kerb.
Bags, wrappers and films tangle in machinery and cannot be processed in kerbside recycling. Dedicated drop-off programs handle them separately when they are running.
Example: Bread bags, pasta packets and bubble wrap: collect them at home and take them to a participating retailer.
Frequently asked questions
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, Penrith City Council included.
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Erskine Park?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Penrith City Council 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.
What is FOGO and does it apply here?
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Penrith City Council's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.

Quick tips for bin night
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Erskine Park the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Check your bin before bin night. Bin night is not the time to discover the bin is still full from last fortnight. A quick check the day before saves a very long fortnight.
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Erskine Park bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
