Over 1 billion coffee cups are used in Australia each year, and very few are recyclable.
The plastic lining makes standard takeaway cups non-recyclable in kerbside bins. Compostable alternatives are growing, but need commercial composting facilities to process properly.
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 City of Parramatta 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.
Can I get a larger or extra bin?
City of Parramatta offers larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as big families or medical needs, usually for a fee. Contact the council's waste team; if you are new to Harris Park, check what size is standard first, since upgrade policies differ between councils.
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.

Quick tips for bin night
- Summer bins need managing. A Harris Park 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.
- Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Harris Park means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
- Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling does not clean itself. A ten second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps a Harris Park bin from becoming a science experiment between fortnightly collections.
