Bins, bulky waste and tips in Canterbury

Useful if you are moving in or out. Collection days, hard waste rules and tip fees are set by the council or government service responsible for your address, so use their official links below.

City of Boroondara

The City of Boroondara runs household bins, booked hard waste collections and the Boroondara Recycling and Waste Centre.

Check your bin collection day Find your bin day by address.

Households have a dark-green- or red-lid household waste bin (every 2 weeks), a lime-green-lid food and garden organics (FOGO) bin (weekly) and a yellow-lid recycling bin.

Hard waste collection

  • Who and how much: residential properties whose general waste bins are collected by the council can book 2 free hard waste collections each financial year. There is no annual street-wide collection; every collection is booked.
  • Limits: a pile of up to 2 cubic metres; items no longer than 150 cm (except mattresses) that two people can lift; sorted into general items, mattresses, e-waste and large metal.
  • Not collected: fences and pallets, building and renovation materials, gas bottles, plasterboard and asbestos, paint and chemicals, bricks and rubble, broken glass, tyres, batteries, household rubbish and recycling. Full list.
  • Waiting time: the council says demand is high and there may be a few weeks between booking and collection. Changes or cancellations need at least 2 business days’ notice.
  • Apartments: in blocks of 14 or fewer units with council-collected bins, residents book for their own unit; in blocks of 15 or more units, the body corporate books.
  • Book: online booking form; items put out without a booking are treated as dumped rubbish.

Planning a move-out

Because the council says there can be a few weeks between booking and collection, book hard waste as soon as you know your moving date and have it collected before your end of lease clean and key handover. If the collection would be too late, take items to the Boroondara Recycling and Waste Centre (fees apply) or arrange a rubbish removal service.
