Frequently asked questions

What happens if I miss bin night in Rose Park?

General waste catches up next week, but Burnside collects recycling and garden organics fortnightly, so a missed night there can mean a two week wait. If a bin is overflowing as a result, Burnside may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.

How often is recycling collected in Rose Park?

Burnside collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. The typical Rose Park collection day is Thursday, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Yes. South Australia has run container deposits since 1977, 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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Caps off, lids on. Small plastic caps come off the bottle and go in the red bin. Metal lids on glass jars can stay put. It is a small rule that trips up a lot of people.
  • Summer bins need managing. A Rose Park 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.
  • Check your bin before bin night. Thursday evening is not the time to discover the bin is still full from last fortnight. A quick check the day before saves a very long fortnight.
