A delayed week often means a fuller bin
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.
Frequently asked questions
How often is recycling collected in Mullaloo?
City of Joondalup collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Mullaloo?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. City of Joondalup 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.
Can I put the bin out the night before?
Yes, and it is the safer habit. City of Joondalup asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Mullaloo can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.

Quick tips for bin night
- Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Mullaloo means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
- Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and City of Joondalup tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and City of Joondalup's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
