Bin collection days

Use the search below to find out which week your general waste, garden organics and recycle bins are collected. Collections occur between 6.00am and 6.00pm on the day of service (unless advised otherwise).

Bin collection days

Garden organics bins are collected on the same day as your general waste bins (on the alternate weeks to recycling bins).

Download the waste collection calendar below or contact council to request a copy.

Change to bin lid colours

Council is progressively changing over waste wheelie bin green lids with red lids to comply with the Australian Standard. This is a long term project with exchanges only being undertaken as maintenance issues occur with the existing lids:

  • Red – general waste
  • Yellow – recycling
  • Lime green – garden organics

This means eventually general waste bins on the Coast will be consistent with other parts of the country, making them easier for people to use.
