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.

Recycling rule worth knowing

Return soft plastics to a collection point rather than the kerb.

Bags, wrappers and films tangle in machinery and cannot be processed in kerbside recycling. Dedicated drop-off programs handle them separately when they are running.

Example: Bread bags, pasta packets and bubble wrap: collect them at home and take them to a participating retailer.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if I miss bin night in Templestowe?

General waste catches up next week, but Manningham 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, Manningham 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. Manningham City asks for bins at the kerb by early morning on collection day, and trucks in Templestowe 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. CDS Vic refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in VIC, 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

  • Summer bins need managing. A Templestowe 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.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Templestowe bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
