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

Empty and dry liquid containers before they go in.

Leftover liquid soaks into paper and cardboard in the same bin, ruining it for recycling and making the load heavier and harder to process.

Example: Tip out the last of the milk or juice and give the bottle a quick drain before it goes in the yellow bin.

Frequently asked questions

Where exactly should the bin go on the kerb?

On the footpath or nature strip close to the kerb, lid opening facing the street, with about half a metre clear on each side. The trucks City of Launceston runs use an automated arm, and bins in Trevallyn blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.

What happens if I miss bin night in Trevallyn?

General waste catches up next week, but City of Launceston 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, City of Launceston may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.

Are the bins different if I rent in Trevallyn?

No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever City of Launceston supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
  • Check your bin before bin night. Bin night is not the time to discover the bin is still full from last fortnight. A quick check the day before saves a very long fortnight.
  • The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Trevallyn households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
