If you find that your bin has not been emptied on its usual collection day, there may have been a problem with the contents, weight or placement of the bin.
Follow the process below to request another collection.
Usually we place a sticker on your bin telling you why it was not collected.
Your bin may not have been emptied because:
We do not service bins that do not belong to Nillumbik Shire Council or that belong to a commercial property.
