Here are some general tips for placing your bin for collection by Cleanaway:

  1. Positioning: Place your bin on the kerb with the wheels facing your property and the lid opening towards the street with bins at least 50cm apart.
  2. Spacing: Ensure there is at least 1 meter of space between your bin and any obstacles, such as parked cars, trees, or other bins.
  3. Timing: Put your bin out the night before your scheduled collection day to ensure it is ready for early morning pick-up.
  4. Lid Closed: Make sure the lid is completely closed to prevent spillage and to keep pests away.
  5. Accessibility: Avoid placing bins under low-hanging branches or power lines to ensure the collection truck can easily access them.
