Here is what Alpine Shire collects from Mount Beauty kerbs, and how often each bin goes out.
Green space, green bin. The garden organics collection is more useful here than you might think.
Living near parks and waterways means more yard material. Council has a separate stream for that.
Mount Beauty falls under Alpine Shire for waste and recycling collections.
Visit Alpine Shire website for the official policy and any service updates.
When collections are pushed back over a holiday period, the gap between pickups grows. General waste and organics can build up faster than usual, especially across the festive season when households produce more of both.
Tip: Squash and flatten where you can, and avoid overfilling. A lid that will not close can mean the truck skips your bin.
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Alpine Shire runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.
No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.
Anything in the yellow bin that does not belong: food soiled packaging, soft plastics, clothing, electrical items. It matters because a contaminated load from Mount Beauty can send a whole truck to landfill, and Alpine Shire can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.
The neighbouring streets have their own schedules. Here's what's happening nearby.
