Recycling rule worth knowing
Remove caps and lids from plastic bottles before recycling.

Example: Milk bottles, shampoo bottles, soft drink bottles: pop the cap off first.
Frequently asked questions
Why does my neighbour in North St Marys have a different bin day?
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. Collection days in North St Marys vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
Where exactly should the bin go on the kerb?
On the footpath or nature strip close to the kerb, lid opening facing the street, with about half a metre clear on each side. The trucks Penrith City Council runs use an automated arm, and bins in North St Marys blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.
Can I put the bin out the night before?
Yes, and it is the safer habit. Penrith City Council asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in North St Marys 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
- Summer bins need managing. A North St Marys red bin in January is a different beast. Bag food scraps tight, keep the bin in shade if you can, and get it out every single week even when it is barely half full.
- Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on Penrith City Council's trucks grabs from the road side. Lid opening toward the street, half a metre of clear space each side, and the bin gets emptied instead of skipped.
- Wishful recycling is not recycling. Putting something in the yellow bin and hoping for the best is contamination, and Penrith City Council tags bins for it. When in doubt, it is general waste.
