Changing bin lids in Knox

From Monday 1 May to Friday 9 June, Knox City Council will be swapping red lids on green waste bins for a new lime-green lid.

“Please leave your green waste bin out on your regular collection day, even if it is empty, and keep it out until 6 pm,” Knox City Council said.

We will be replacing the lid and delivering a new kitchen caddy, a year’s supply of compostable liners, and an information pack about the new food and garden service.”

If the bin is missed, the council asks you to put your bin out the following fortnight.

“Changing the bins across all of Knox will take approximately 6 weeks (or 3 collection cycles), which means your neighbours might get their new lid before or after you,” council said.

“If you are away during this time, ask a neighbour or friend to put your bin out and bring it in for you.”
