Report a missed commercial waste collection

Why your has bin not been emptied

Have you presented the bin correctly? 

If the bin is overfilled (i.e. the lid won't close) or the bin is not presented on the kerbside, then the bin will not be uplifted by the collection crew. Side waste will also not be uplifted by the collection crew. The bin should be presented by 7:30am to avoid being missed.

Is the recycling bin contaminated?

If the bin contains the wrong materials (e.g. glass in a dry mixed recyclates bin) it will not be uplifted by the collection crew. 

Do you think your bin has been missed?
