Food and garden bin
From April, Council will roll out a new food and garden waste bin service across Knox.
All residents will have a green bin where they can throw out food scraps with their green waste.
Find out more about the food and garden bin service.
About bin fees
Every household must pay a waste service charge of $298 per year to provide bin services. This charge appears on your rates bill.
The rubbish bin fee provides the standard service of:
- an 80 litre waste bin
- a 240 litre recycle bin
- bundled and resident’s own container for green waste and hard waste service.
This applies to all residential properties in Knox that use Council's waste services. A small number of properties (some apartments or multi-unit developments) may be required to use private waste services.
If you are renting, the owner or rental agent will arrange Council bins for you.
