Recycling rule worth knowing
Never bag your recycling. Put items directly in the bin..
Plastic bags prevent automated sorting lines from processing the contents. The bag and everything inside it typically ends up in landfill regardless of what's inside.
Example: Tins, bottles, cardboard: loose in the yellow bin, not in a bag.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to bins on public holidays?
It depends on the holiday and the council. When City of Marion shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later, so a Monday run can become the following day. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.
Do I get money back for drink containers?
Yes. South Australia has run container deposits since 1977, at depots, return machines and bag drop points. Containers you redeem are extra money in your pocket; eligible containers you skip still go in the recycling bin.
What do I do with old electronics?
Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Australia, and City of Marion 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.

Quick tips for bin night
- Summer bins need managing. A Glandore 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.
- Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on City of Marion'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.
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Glandore the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
