Frequently asked questions

Where exactly should the bin go on the kerb?

On the footpath or nature strip close to the kerb, lid opening facing the street, with about half a metre clear on each side. The trucks Hunters Hill runs use an automated arm, and bins in Woolwich blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.

Can broken glass go in the recycling bin?

No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.

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 NSW.

Quick tips for bin night

  • 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.
  • Holiday weeks shuffle the schedule. Long weekends can quietly push Hunters Hill collections back a day. Check before a public holiday so you are not chasing the truck down the street.
  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
