A delayed week often means a fuller bin
When collections are pushed back over a holiday period, the gap between pickups grows. General waste and organics can build up faster than usual, especially across the festive season when households produce more of both.
Tip: Squash and flatten where you can, and avoid overfilling. A lid that will not close can mean the truck skips your bin.
Frequently asked questions
Can I put the bin out the night before?
Yes, and it is the safer habit. City of Joondalup asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Heathridge can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.
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 Joondalup included.
What happens if I miss bin night in Heathridge?
General waste catches up next week, but City of Joondalup collects recycling and garden organics fortnightly, so a missed night there can mean a two week wait. If a bin is overflowing as a result, City of Joondalup may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.

Quick tips for bin night
- Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on City of Joondalup'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.
- The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Heathridge households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
- Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Heathridge means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
