Recycling rule worth knowing

Never bag your recycling. Put items directly in the bin..

Plastic bags prevent automated sorting lines from processing the contents. The bag and everything inside it typically ends up in landfill regardless of what's inside.

Example: Tins, bottles, cardboard: loose in the yellow bin, not in a bag.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put my bins in any spot on the kerb?

Place bins on the footpath or nature strip near the kerb, with the lid opening facing the road, and leave a gap of about half a metre around each one. Trucks with an automated arm need clear space and cannot reach bins blocked by cars, poles, or trees.

Can I get a larger bin?

Some councils offer larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as large families or medical needs. There's usually a fee. Contact your council's waste services team directly.

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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin. There is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it won't shut, it won't go.
  • Wishful recycling isn't recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best isn't recycling. It's contamination. When in doubt, it's general waste.
