What day is bin day?

Below is the online version of the fridge magnet we send out to ratepayers with collection details.
You can also download and save a copy of the  2025-2026 kerbside waste calendar.
Which bin should I use?
The red lid general waste bin is mainly for things which can’t be recycled: 
  • Food and organic waste
  • Grass clippings and small pruning 
  • Nappies
  • General household waste
All items in the yellow lid recycling bin should be clean, dry and empty with the lids removed.
The following can be recycled:
  • Glass bottles and jars (clean and empty)
  • Paper (not shredded)
  • Cardboard (flattened)
  • Plastic bottles and containers (clean, empty, no lids)
  • Steel and aluminium cans (clean and empty)

Further advice on what can and cannot be recycled can be found here.

On the day of collection please ensure your bins are placed on the kerb by 6am.
Getting a replacement bin
All replacement 240L rubbish bins incur a charge to be paid prior to delivery.
The owner of the property must request a replacement bin by contacting the Shire of Ravensthorpe directly.
No more annual verge collection service
The Shire of Ravensthorpe no longer provides an annual verge waste collection service to residents.


All white goods including degassed refrigerators and freezers are accepted at both Ravensthorpe and Hopetoun waste facilities at no cost.
