Did you know?
Bagged recycling is one of the most common reasons a load is rejected.
Sorting machines and staff cannot open every bag, so anything tied up inside is treated as contamination. Tipping recyclables in loose solves the problem entirely.
Frequently asked questions
What goes in the green bin?
Grass clippings, leaves, small branches and prunings. If Georges River Council runs a FOGO service, food scraps can join them in an approved compostable liner; if the lid says garden organics only, keep food out. When unsure, check the lid sticker or the council website.
Why does my neighbour in Hurstville Grove have a different bin day?
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 Hurstville Grove vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
Do I get money back for drink containers?
Yes. Return and Earn refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in NSW, 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.

Quick tips for bin night
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Hurstville Grove the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Georges River Council collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
- Summer bins need managing. A Hurstville Grove 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.
