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

How often is recycling collected in Moss Vale?

Wingecarribee Shire collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. The typical Moss Vale collection day is Friday, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

What goes in the yellow recycling bin?

Paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminium cans, and rigid plastic containers like bottles, tubs and trays. Soft plastics, food waste and contaminated packaging do not belong in it anywhere in NSW.

What happens to bins on public holidays?

It depends on the holiday and the council. When Wingecarribee Shire shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later, so a Friday run can become the following day. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and Wingecarribee Shire tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
  • Empty it before you bin it. A half full bottle leaks through the paper and cardboard sharing its bin. Drain liquids first and the whole load stays cleaner.
  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, and then it waits until the following Friday, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
