Garbage Collection

We offer waste services to residents including the collection of: Recycling to be reprocessed (bright yellow lid) Optional collection of green waste (bright green lid) and Garbage once a week (smaller 140 litre bins with dark green lid). Find out which day your rubbish, recycling or green waste is collected through our 2012 Waste Guide.

Brimbank households are provided with a garbage bin for household rubbish, this bin is collected weekly.  Rubbish in this bin goes to landfill.  Material that can be reused, recycled, or composted should not go in this bin.

Rubbish must be contained in bags or wrapped.  You must bring your bin in on the same day it is emptied. 

Please note: Your bins must be out by 6am on your collection day and at least half a metre between the bins, with the wheels away from the road.

Unemptied, damaged or missing bins

Lost, stolen or damaged bins can be reported at Sunshine Harvester Library or Keilor Customer Service, just bring along some identification with your name and address on it.
