City of Whittlesea Bin Collection Calendar: November 2024 Sorted!
Figuring out bin collection schedules can feel like deciphering a secret code sometimes. But fear not, residents of Whittlesea! This guide will break down everything you need to know about your bin collection for November 2024.
The City of Whittlesea operates a two-zone bin collection system. This means there are two designated areas (Zone 1 and Zone 2) that alternate collection days for rubbish, green organics (FOGO), and recycling bins.
The easiest way to determine your collection zone is to check the City of Whittlesea’s website. They have a handy tool called “My Neighbourhood” which allows you to enter your address and see your specific bin collection schedule [https://www.whittlesea.vic.gov.au/waste-environment/bins-waste/](https://www.whittlesea.vic.gov.au/waste-environment/bins-waste/).
Unfortunately, since it’s still June 2024, the official bin collection calendar for November hasn’t been released by the City of Whittlesea yet. However, their collection schedule typically follows a fortnightly rotation, with zones alternating between rubbish and recycling/FOGO bins.
There are a couple of ways to stay on top of your bin collection schedule for November:
