How to put your bins out

  • Place bins out by 6.00am on collection day, half a metre apart and away from trees, power poles and cars.
  • Squeeze any air from bags of rubbish before placing in your landfill bin. This will create more space in your bin, stop waste from getting stuck and prevent a partially-emptied bin.  
  • Do not over compact your bin.    
  • Do not overfill; the lid must be closed.
