What goes where: batteries

Correct bin: Neither bin. Drop off at Bunnings or a council facility..

Batteries can cause fires in both collection trucks and at sorting facilities. Bunnings stores, some councils, and battery retailers accept used batteries for safe recycling.

Avoid: Don't put batteries in any kerbside bin, not even the general waste bin.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my neighbour in Shepparton 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. In Shepparton that mostly means Monday, though streets near a zone boundary can differ. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.

What is FOGO and does it apply here?

FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Greater Shepparton City's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.

How often is recycling collected in Shepparton?

Greater Shepparton City collects recycling fortnightly, alternating with the garden organics bin. The typical Shepparton collection day is Monday, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

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.
  • The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Shepparton households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
  • 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.
