Recycling rule worth knowing
Keep lids closed on your recycling bin on collection day.

Example: If your bin is full, break down any large cardboard boxes to make room rather than stacking items on top.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to bins on public holidays?
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Brisbane City shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.
Do I get money back for drink containers?
Yes. Containers for Change refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in QLD, 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.
How often is recycling collected in Inala?
Brisbane City collects recycling fortnightly. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

Quick tips for bin night
- Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on Brisbane City'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.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Brisbane City's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
