Order bins for a new property

You can order from a number of bin packages, depending on the size of your new property.

In most cases, the package you choose must include 3 bins (rubbish, recycling and green waste). This helps to keep our city clean and environmentally friendly. If your property is less than 400 square metres (m2), a garden waste bin is optional.

If you are in a rental property, you must order the standard option (with a 120L garbage bin).

If your bin is damaged beyond repair, we will leave a card in your letterbox with more information. You must then call Council to arrange a replacement.

You may be able to upsize or downsize your bins to better manage your waste. Rubbish bins are available in 80L and 120L sizes.

This fee will be refunded if you downsize your bin.
