What goes where: takeaway coffee cups
Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).
The waterproof plastic lining means a standard takeaway cup cannot be recycled kerbside. The lid is sometimes recyclable if it is rigid plastic, but the cup itself is not.
Avoid: Don't assume a paper-looking cup is recyclable. A reusable cup avoids the problem entirely.
Frequently asked questions
What do I do with old electronics?
Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Australia, and Brisbane City lists its e-waste drop off options online, usually the local transfer station plus periodic collection events. Officeworks takes computers, phones and cables in most areas.
Should I rinse containers before recycling?
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Everton Park's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.
What goes in the yellow recycling bin?
Paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminium cans, and rigid plastic containers like bottles, tubs and trays. Soft plastics, food waste and contaminated packaging do not belong in it anywhere in QLD.

Quick tips for bin night
- 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.
- Know your fortnight. Everton Park alternates its fortnightly bins, and guessing wrong is the classic move. The neighbours' kerb on bin morning is the traditional answer; an address search is the reliable one.
- Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on Brisbane City's trucks grabs from the road side. Lid opening toward the street, half a metre of clear space each side, and the bin gets emptied instead of skipped.
