Frequently asked questions
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 Wanneroo can send a whole truck to landfill, and City of Wanneroo can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Wanneroo?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. City of Wanneroo runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.
Are the bins different if I rent in Wanneroo?
No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever City of Wanneroo 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
- Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and City of Wanneroo's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
- The green bin loves your garden. The green bin is not quite a mulching service, but it is as close as most Wanneroo households get. Grass clippings, leaves, small branches: all welcome.
- 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.
