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

Why was my bin not collected?

Common reasons include: the bin lid wasn't fully closed, the bin wasn't at the kerb before the truck passed, there was contamination in the recycling bin, or the bin was blocking the truck's mechanical arm. Your council's website usually has a missed collection form.

What do I do with old electronics?

E-waste (phones, laptops, cables, printers) should never go in any kerbside bin. Most councils have e-waste drop-off points at transfer stations, and some libraries and community centres also accept small items. Check your council's website.

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Every Australian state and territory now runs a container deposit scheme, paying 10 cents for eligible drink containers returned to a depot or reverse vending machine. Containers you redeem this way are kept separate from your kerbside recycling.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling doesn't clean itself. A 10-second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps your bin from becoming a science experiment.
  • Set a reminder now. Missed bin night? That's a two-week wait for general waste. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two-week smell costs something.
  • Rain isn't an excuse. The bin doesn't care if it's raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
