What goes where: takeaway coffee cups

Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).

The waterproof plastic lining means a standard takeaway cup cannot be recycled kerbside. The lid is sometimes recyclable if it is rigid plastic, but the cup itself is not.

Avoid: Don't assume a paper-looking cup is recyclable. A reusable cup avoids the problem entirely.

Frequently asked questions

Should I rinse containers before recycling?

A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps South Morang's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.

What happens if I miss bin night in South Morang?

General waste catches up next week, but Whittlesea City 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, Whittlesea City may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.

Are the bins different if I rent in South Morang?

No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever Whittlesea City supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Check your bin before bin night. Bin night 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.
  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling does not clean itself. A ten second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps a South Morang bin from becoming a science experiment between fortnightly collections.
  • Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Whittlesea City's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
