Green space, green bin. The garden organics collection is more useful here than you might think.

Living near parks and waterways means more yard material. Council has a separate stream for that.

Australia Day and Anzac Day can move your collection

Australia Day on 26 January and Anzac Day on 25 April are public holidays nationwide. When either lands on a weekday, councils that collect that day often delay the rest of the week by one day.

Tip: If your bin day is mid-week, glance at the council notice the week these dates fall on a weekday.

Frequently asked questions

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Every Australian state and territory now runs a container deposit scheme, paying 10 cents for eligible drink containers returned to a depot or reverse vending machine. Containers you redeem this way are kept separate from your kerbside recycling.

What do I do with old electronics?

E-waste (phones, laptops, cables, printers) should never go in any kerbside bin. Most councils have e-waste drop-off points at transfer stations, and some libraries and community centres also accept small items. Check your council's website.

Can I recycle pizza boxes?

A clean, dry pizza box is recyclable. If the base is soaked with grease and cheese, tear off and recycle the clean lid, and put the greasy part in general waste. Oil contaminates the paper recycling process.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Rain isn't an excuse. The bin doesn't care if it's raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid won't close. Lids need to close for collection. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
  • Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends quietly push collections back a day. Check the council notice before a public holiday so you're not chasing the truck down the street.
