Frequently asked questions
What do I do with old electronics?
Never any kerbside bin. E-waste is banned or diverted from landfill across Australia, and North Sydney Council lists its e-waste drop off options online, usually the local transfer station plus periodic collection events. Officeworks takes computers, phones and cables in most areas.
Can I recycle pizza boxes?
A clean, dry pizza box is fine in the yellow bin. If the base is soaked with grease, tear off and recycle the clean lid and put the greasy half in general waste. This rule is the same across every NSW council, North Sydney Council included.
Does Waverton have a garden organics bin?
North Sydney Council does not include a standard garden organics bin in Waverton's kerbside lineup. Green waste is handled through drop off, booked collections or an opt in bin depending on the council; their website has the current options.

Quick tips for bin night
- Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in Waverton the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Waverton bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
