Bin requests
We collect your household waste bins every week, with the collection day depending on where you live.
Has your bin been lost or stolen? Perhaps you've moved into a property that doesn't have a bin. We can help.
The standard Darebin waste bin is 80 litres, but you can ask for a bigger bin if you think you need one.
If we missed your bin during a recent collection, please let us know within 48 hours so we can arrange another collection.
