Bin collections and etiquette

Easter 2021

All kerbside waste and recycling collection services will take place as usual over the Easter holidays.

Bin etiquette

Bin etiquette is an important part of waste management and helps keep everyone happy.

  • Place your bin on the kerbside before 5.00am on your collection day.

  • Ensure your bin is not obstructed by vehicles, overhanging trees, electricity poles and letter boxes.
  • Place your bin with the lid opening towards the roadway.
  • Make sure the lid of your bin is fully closed.
  • Find out what can be placed into your bin. Bins may be rejected if they contain unacceptable material.     
  • Ensure your bin weighs less than 80kg.
  • Space bins one metre apart.
