Bin Collection Days

There will be no bin collection on Christmas Day or New Year's Day.

Please see the table below for the day your bins will be collected:

Are you our sustainable service – weekly food and garden organics (FOGO) collection / fortnightly landfill collection? We will provide one extra red-lidded landfill bin collection on the week beginning 30 December for these households only. This means that if you are, you can put out all three bins on your collection day in the week beginning 30 December.

You can download a copy of our bin collection calendar below or collect from the Glenelg Library or Brighton Civic Centre.

Except for Christmas and New Year's Day, collections normally occur on public holidays.

If you are on our sustainable service (weekly food organic / garden organic collection) you can get weekly notifications on your mobile phone the night before your collection day using the My Holdfast app. The app will remind you what bins need to go out and when.

Apple users can download it via the App Store, and Android users can download it via the Google Play Store. Enter “My Holdfast” into the search bar and look for the wave symbol. Then download and use it. Please note that the app's bin feature is only available for residents on the Weekly FOGO service.

If your bin collection was missed, please advise Solo Resource Recovery between 7am and 6pm, Monday to Friday.

• Place your bins on the kerb in a visible position by 6am. on collection day, and once they are emptied, bring them in on the same day.
• Bins should be 50 cm apart with wheels facing away from the kerb. They should also be at least one metre from obstacles such as parked cars, trees and electricity poles.
• If you live in a multi-apartment complex, please place bins lined up in the same bin type, for example, all recycling bins next to each other. This will make it easier for the truck to collect.
• Bins must be less than 50 kg to be emptied.
