Frequently asked questions
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 NSW council, Wollongong City included.
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.
Can I put the bin out the night before?
Yes, and it is the safer habit. Wollongong City asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Keiraville can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.

Quick tips for bin night
- Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and Wollongong City tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Wollongong City's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Keiraville bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
