Frequently asked questions
What counts as recycling contamination?
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 Samson can send a whole truck to landfill, and Moreton Bay can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.
Do I get money back for drink containers?
Yes. Containers for Change refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in QLD, at depots, return machines and bag drop points. Containers you redeem are extra money in your pocket; eligible containers you skip still go in the recycling bin.
What happens to bins on public holidays?
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Moreton Bay 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.

Quick tips for bin night
- Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
- Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
- The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Mount Samson households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
