Did you know?

Lithium batteries cause hundreds of fires in waste trucks and facilities every year.

A button battery or vape tossed in a kerbside bin can ignite under pressure. Batteries belong at a dedicated drop-off, never in any of your three bins.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put the bin out the night before?

Most councils say bins should be at the kerb by 6 AM on collection day but can go out the evening before. Keep them off the road and clear of driveways, parked cars, and other bins.

What is FOGO and do I have it?

FOGO stands for Food Organics and Garden Organics. It is a kerbside service where food scraps go in the same bin as garden waste and are composted. Not every council offers it yet. If your green bin lid says garden organics only, keep food out of it.

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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Loose, not bagged. Tip your recycling in loose. A tied bag can't be opened on the sorting line, so the whole lot gets treated as rubbish. The bag defeats the entire point.
  • Flatten before you fill. A single un-flattened box can eat half your recycling bin. Break it down first and you'll fit a fortnight of cardboard without a fight.
  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin. There is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
