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.
The Gap falls under Brisbane City for waste and recycling collections.
Visit Brisbane City website for the official policy and any service updates.
Australia Day on 26 January and Anzac Day on 25 April are public holidays nationwide. When either lands on a weekday, councils that collect that day often delay the rest of the week by one day.
Tip: If your bin day is mid-week, glance at the council notice the week these dates fall on a weekday.
General waste catches up next week, but Brisbane City collects recycling fortnightly, so a missed night there can mean a two week wait. If a bin is overflowing as a result, Brisbane City may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.
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.
