Did you know?

Compost made from kerbside organics is used on farms, parks and roadsides.

When your green bin material is processed, it becomes a soil conditioner that returns nutrients to the ground and reduces the need for synthetic fertiliser.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Mount Druitt?

Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Blacktown City 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.

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 is FOGO and does it apply here?

FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Blacktown City's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.

Quick tips for bin night

  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
  • Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Blacktown City collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
