Did you know?

Lithium batteries cause hundreds of fires in waste trucks and facilities every year.

A button battery or vape tossed in a kerbside bin can ignite under pressure. Batteries belong at a dedicated drop-off, never in any of your three bins.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put my bins in any spot on the kerb?

Place bins on the footpath or nature strip near the kerb, with the lid opening facing the road, and leave a gap of about half a metre around each one. Trucks with an automated arm need clear space and cannot reach bins blocked by cars, poles, or trees.

Why does my neighbour have a different bin day?

Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs or even different councils near a boundary. Always confirm by entering your own address rather than copying a neighbour's schedule.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Rain isn't an excuse. The bin doesn't care if it's raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling doesn't clean itself. A 10-second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps your bin from becoming a science experiment.
  • Set a reminder now. Missed bin night? That's a two-week wait for general waste. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two-week smell costs something.
