Frequently asked questions
Are the bins different if I rent in Girrawheen?
No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever City of Wanneroo supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.
Can broken glass go in the recycling bin?
No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.
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 WA.

Quick tips for bin night
- Know your fortnight. Girrawheen 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.
- Empty it before you bin it. A half full bottle leaks through the paper and cardboard sharing its bin. Drain liquids first and the whole load stays cleaner.
- Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and City of Wanneroo tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
