General Waste Services

General Waste Bin Collection

Council provides a weekly domestic general waste collection service to Noosa residents.

Waste bins are for general household waste only, such as food wrapping, Styrofoam and plastic bags. They are not suitable for recyclables or garden waste. These items are to be placed in the recycling bin or garden/green waste bin. General waste bins have either a red or dark green lid.

Larger, 360 Litre recycling bins or change to bin services can be ordered Online,

Bin charges can be found in Council's Revenue Statement.
