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.

• Household Recycling

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

• Household Garbage

  Council offers residents a choice of bins for waste collection. The less waste you produce, the smaller the bin you 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 month.

• 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. Residents are requested to call Council to arrange a pre-paid collection service.

• Compost Bins and Worm Farms

  Council has quality compost bins and great little worm farms for sale at subsidised prices.
