Landfill bin (bright red lid)
Most general household waste that cannot go in your FOGO, recycling or glass-only bin goes in your kerbside landfill bin (bright red lid).
Some household waste such as e-waste (items with a cord, plug or battery) cannot go into any kerbside bin.
Your landfill bin is collected every fortnight in urban and rural collection areas.
When you put things in your landfill bin, they don’t just go away: they get buried at the Anglesea Landfill. The landfill will close in 2027 when it reaches its maximum waste capacity.
By separating your waste and using your kerbside bins correctly, you can help extend the life of the landfill and keep valuable resources in use for as long as possible.

Landfill bin tips
- Check what goes in your FOGO, recycling and glass-only bins and keep those items out of landfill.
- Never put batteries, e-waste, liquids, hot ashes or chemicals in any bin.
- Do not overfill your bin and ensure the lid can close. Residents are responsible for picking up litter from overfull bins.
- Bags of household waste sitting next to bins will not be picked up.
