Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).
Disposable nappies and baby wipes are general waste, even the ones labelled biodegradable, which do not break down in a standard kerbside system.
Avoid: Don't flush wipes, even flushable ones. They contribute to blockages in the sewer network.
Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Victoria, and Frankston 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.
Yes, and it is the safer habit. Frankston City asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Frankston North can run early. Putting bins out on the evening before the Tuesday run avoids the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. In Frankston North that mostly means Tuesday, though streets near a zone boundary can differ. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
