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 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.

How often is recycling collected in Trentham?

Hepburn Shire collects recycling fortnightly. Collection days vary by street, and an address search shows which fortnight you are in right now.

What counts as recycling contamination?

Anything in the yellow bin that does not belong: food soiled packaging, soft plastics, clothing, electrical items. It matters because a contaminated load from Trentham can send a whole truck to landfill, and Hepburn Shire can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Empty it before you bin it. A half full bottle leaks through the paper and cardboard sharing its bin. Drain liquids first and the whole load stays cleaner.
  • Know your fortnight. Trentham alternates its fortnightly bins, and guessing wrong is the classic move. The neighbours' kerb on bin morning is the traditional answer; an address search is the reliable one.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
