Frequently asked questions
How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in West Leederville?
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Town of Cambridge 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.
What goes in the green bin?
Grass clippings, leaves, small branches and prunings. If Town of Cambridge runs a FOGO service, food scraps can join them in an approved compostable liner; if the lid says garden organics only, keep food out. When unsure, check the lid sticker or the council website.
What happens to bins on public holidays?
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Town of Cambridge shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later, so a Friday run can become the following day. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.

Quick tips for bin night
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any West Leederville bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
- Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Town of Cambridge collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
- Flatten before you fill. A single unflattened box can eat half the recycling bin, and in West Leederville the next yellow collection is a fortnight away. Break it down first and a fortnight of cardboard fits without a fight.
