What goes where: batteries

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

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

Frequently asked questions

What happens if I miss bin night in Stanhope Gardens?

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

Can I put the bin out the night before?

Yes, and it is the safer habit. Blacktown City asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Stanhope Gardens can run early. The evening before beats the dawn sprint. Keep them clear of driveways, parked cars and other bins.

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Yes. Return and Earn refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in NSW, 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

  • Face the opening to the street. The lifter arm on Blacktown City'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.
  • Summer bins need managing. A Stanhope Gardens 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.
  • Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Stanhope Gardens means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
