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.

Phones, laptops, and cables shouldn't go in any kerbside bin. Most councils have e-waste drop-off points at transfer stations or library branches.

Frequently asked questions

Can broken glass go in the recycling bin?

No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.

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 Manningham City's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.

What goes in the green bin?

Grass clippings, leaves, small branches and prunings. If Manningham City runs a FOGO service, food scraps can join them in an approved compostable liner; if the lid says garden organics only, keep food out. When unsure, check the lid sticker or the council website.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Templestowe Lower bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
  • Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Manningham City's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling does not clean itself. A ten second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps a Templestowe Lower bin from becoming a science experiment between fortnightly collections.
