Kerbside Bin Placement

Published on 09 November 2026

The Council, partnered with the waste collection team, kindly request residents of the Maranoa region to correctly present their bins.

To ensure your bin is collected, please make sure it is:

• Placed on the kerbside prior to 5 am on your collection day
• Facing the road, with the handles facing your property
• No more than 1 metre from the kerb or roadside
• Spaced at least 30 cm apart, if presenting more than one bin.

Bins must not block footpaths or driveways. They should also be placed clear of parked cars, trees, and poles to allow safe and unobstructed access for the collection vehicle.

We acknowledge that the recent weather events may have affected your bin placement, however, it is the responsibility of the customer to place bins in a location that is accessible to the collection trucks.

Council appreciates your understanding.

For all questions, call Council on 1300 007 662.
