Did you know?
Contamination rates in Australian recycling bins average around 15%.
When non-recyclables end up in the yellow bin, they can divert entire loads to landfill. The most common contaminants are soft plastics, food waste, and soiled packaging.
Frequently asked questions
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 WA.
What is FOGO and does it apply here?
FOGO means food scraps composted together with garden waste in a green bin. Willetton's standard lineup does not currently include that bin, so food waste goes in general waste for now; councils across WA are progressively adding organics services.
Are the bins different if I rent in Willetton?
No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever City of Canning 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
- Rain is not an excuse. The bin does not care if it is raining. Neither does the truck. Put it out anyway.
- Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Willetton bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
- Empty it before you bin it. A half full bottle leaks through the paper and cardboard sharing its bin. Drain liquids first and the whole load stays cleaner.
