Frequently asked questions

Why was my bin in Yanco not collected?

The usual reasons: the lid was not fully closed, the bin was out after the truck passed, contamination was spotted in the recycling, or the truck arm could not reach past a parked car. Leeton Shire has a missed collection form on its website; report it and leave the bin out.

Do I get money back for drink containers?

Yes. Return and Earn refunds 10 cents per eligible drink container in NSW, at depots, return machines and bag drop points. Containers you redeem are extra money in your pocket; eligible containers you skip still go in the recycling bin.

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 Leeton Shire runs use an automated arm, and bins in Yanco blocked by cars, poles or low branches are the most common reason a bin gets skipped.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Two rules, both matter. There is a correct bin and there is a correct night. These are two different things and both matter.
  • Loose, not bagged. Tip recycling in loose. A tied bag cannot be opened on the sorting line, so the whole lot gets treated as rubbish. The bag defeats the entire point.
  • Batteries are not bin material. A battery in any Yanco bin is a fire waiting to happen in the truck. Drop them at a supermarket collection tub instead. The truck driver thanks you.
