Australia generates more than 67 million tonnes of waste per year.
That's roughly 2.7 tonnes per person. Around 60% is currently diverted from landfill through recycling and recovery programs.
Anything in the yellow bin that does not belong: food soiled packaging, soft plastics, clothing, electrical items. It matters because a contaminated load from Umina Beach can send a whole truck to landfill, and Central Coast Council can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.
Central Coast Council offers larger or additional bins for eligible households, such as big families or medical needs, usually for a fee. Contact the council's waste team; if you are new to Umina Beach, check what size is standard first, since upgrade policies differ between councils.
