Waste and Recycling

Mosman Council continually strives to improve the waste and recycling services offered to its residents. Council offers a number of options designed to improve the service while minimising waste disposal and maximising resource recovery.

  • Bin Collection Dates

    Council provides calendars to all residents detailing collection dates for each of its waste services.

  • Waste and Recycling Resources

    We have created new signage and educational material to make sure residents know exactly what is recyclable, and what should be placed in the landfill bin.

  • Household Recycling

    Mosman Council provides a weekly kerbside recycling collection service. Recycle your paper, cans, cartons and bottles.

  • Household Garbage

    Mosman Council offers residents a choice of bins for waste collection. The less waste you produce, the smaller the bin you will need and the lower the waste charge will be.

  • Household Green Waste

    Garden organic material like leaves, twigs and weeds, grass cuttings, prunings and general garden vegetation is collected once every four weeks.

  • Household Clean Up

    Council collects Clean Up material – such as furniture, carpet, stoves and bicycle frames – twice a year. Additional collections can be booked.

  • E-waste

    Safe and environmentally friendly ways of disposing of unwanted electronic goods like computers, televisions and video recorders.

  • Illegal Dumping

    Dumping of waste onto land or into water is illegal.Council incurs a cost to remove dumped waste and residents are requested to call Council to arrange a pre-paid collection service. You can report dumped waste to Council’s Waste Line on 9978 4076.

    Mosman Council has quality compost bins and great little worm farms for sale at subsidised prices. And, we deliver!
