Christmas and New Year cause the longest delays

The period between Christmas and New Year is the most disruptive for collections. Many councils run reduced schedules over the summer break, with some pickups delayed by several days. The official council website is the most reliable source during this stretch.

Tip: Set a reminder for the week before Christmas to check your council's holiday schedule. The window for putting out general waste before the break fills up fast.

Frequently asked questions

What is FOGO and does it apply here?

FOGO means food scraps composted together with garden waste in a green bin. Warracknabeal's standard lineup does not currently include that bin, so food waste goes in general waste for now; councils across VIC are progressively adding organics services.

What goes in the yellow recycling bin?

Paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminium cans, and rigid plastic containers like bottles, tubs and trays. Soft plastics, food waste and contaminated packaging do not belong in it anywhere in VIC.

How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Warracknabeal?

Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Yarriambiack Shire 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.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Warracknabeal bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
  • The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
  • Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
