Australia recycles around 84% of paper and cardboard.
Paper is one of the most successfully recovered materials in Australia's waste stream, largely because it's well-understood and sorted effectively kerbside.
On the footpath or nature strip close to the kerb, lid opening facing the street, with about half a metre clear on each side. The trucks Whitehorse City runs use an automated arm, and bins in Mont Albert blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Whitehorse 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.
The usual reasons: the lid was not fully closed, the bin was out after the truck passed, contamination was spotted in the recycling, or the truck arm could not reach past a parked car. Whitehorse City has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.
