Small bin, busy suburb. You already know the drill, so let's make it official.

Homebush falls under Strathfield Municipal for waste and recycling collections.
Visit Strathfield Municipal website for the official policy and any service updates.
Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).
Disposable nappies and baby wipes are general waste, even the ones labelled biodegradable, which do not break down in a standard kerbside system.
Avoid: Don't flush wipes, even flushable ones. They contribute to blockages in the sewer network.
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. Strathfield Municipal has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. Collection days in Homebush vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Strathfield Municipal's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
The streets around here all have their own bin days. Here are the nearby suburbs worth bookmarking.
