What happens if my bin has been half-emptied?
Overfilling or compacting materials into your bin is the cause of half-emptied bins. Separate and loosen the remaining materials in the bin and report the half-emptied bin to Council.
All half-emptied bin requests are recorded by Council and will not return to properties who repeatedly overfill or compact their bins.
