The heritage homes get character. The bins still go out the same as everyone else's.

Some things don't change regardless of how old the neighbourhood is.

  • Your specific collection day depends on your street. Enter your address above to find yours.

Visit Moira Shire website for the official policy and any service updates.

Recycling rule worth knowing

Keep lids closed on your recycling bin on collection day.

An overflowing recycling bin with the lid open can have its contents spilled by wind or rejected by the collection truck's automated arm.

Example: If your bin is full, break down any large cardboard boxes to make room rather than stacking items on top.

Frequently asked questions

Can broken glass go in the recycling bin?

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.

Does Numurkah have a garden organics bin?

Moira Shire does not include a standard garden organics bin in Numurkah's kerbside lineup. Green waste is handled through drop off, booked collections or an opt in bin depending on the council; their website has the current options.

What do I do with old electronics?

Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Victoria, and Moira Shire lists its e-waste drop off options online, usually the local transfer station plus periodic collection events. Officeworks takes computers, phones and cables in most areas.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Numurkah the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
  • Loose, not bagged. Tip recycling in loose. A tied bag cannot be opened on the sorting line, so the whole lot gets treated as rubbish. The bag defeats the entire point.
  • Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on Moira Shire'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.
