Frequently asked questions
Why was my bin in Hammond Park not collected?
The usual reasons: the lid was not fully closed, the bin was out after the truck passed, contamination was spotted in the recycling, or the truck arm could not reach past a parked car. City of Cockburn has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.
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 WA council, City of Cockburn included.
Can I put the bin out the night before?
Yes, and it is the safer habit. City of Cockburn asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Hammond Park can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.

Quick tips for bin night
- Caps off, lids on. Small plastic caps come off the bottle and go in the red bin. Metal lids on glass jars can stay put. It is a small rule that trips up a lot of people.
- The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Hammond Park households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
- 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.
