Changes Are Coming To Our Waste Bins

The City of Casey is inviting residents to have their say on how the community can better manage waste.

Community feedback will help Council to better understand your preference for waste management in Casey.

The Victorian Government is standardising household waste and recycling services across the state, which will see Council's kerbside services move to a four-bin system by 2027:

  1. General rubbish (red lid)
  2. Co-mingled recycling (yellow lid)
  3. Food and garden waste (lime green lid)
  4. Glass (purple lid).

To meet the Victorian Government requirements, Council will work towards transitioning residents to colour-coded bin lids, introduce a glass bin, and continue to roll out a food and garden waste bin to every Casey household.

City of Casey Chair of Administrators Noelene Duff PSM encourages all residents and businesses who uses Council's waste services to share their feedback via an online survey.

'Your input will help Council to maximise resource recovery and provide a user-friendly waste service in the future,' Noelene said.

The survey is now open on Casey Conversations until 5:00 pm on Monday 16 September and residents who complete the survey can go in the draw to win a $100 gift voucher.

Several pop-up events will also be hosted across the community providing residents with an opportunity to provide feedback in person.
