About your council's collection service

Moorabbin falls under Kingston City for waste and recycling collections.

  • Recycling and garden organics alternate on a fortnightly cycle, so only one of the two goes out each week.
  • Kingston operates several recycling drop-off points for materials not accepted kerbside, including polystyrene and e-waste.
  • Your specific collection day depends on your street. Enter your address above to find yours.

Did you know?

Over 1 billion coffee cups are used in Australia each year, and very few are recyclable.

The plastic lining makes standard takeaway cups non-recyclable in kerbside bins. Compostable alternatives are growing, but need commercial composting facilities to process properly.

Frequently asked questions

Why was my bin in Moorabbin not collected?

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. Kingston City has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.

What do I do with old electronics?

Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Victoria, and Kingston City lists its e-waste drop off options online, usually the local transfer station plus periodic collection events. Officeworks takes computers, phones and cables in most areas.

Can I get a larger or extra bin?

Kingston City offers larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as big families or medical needs, usually for a fee. Contact the council's waste team; if you are new to Moorabbin, check what size is standard first, since upgrade policies differ between councils.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Moorabbin bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Know your fortnight. Moorabbin alternates its fortnightly bins, and guessing wrong is the classic move. The neighbours' kerb on bin morning is the traditional answer; an address search is the reliable one.
