Local Bins is in testing now. How it works

How it works

Set up once, then get on with your evening

Step 1
Tell it about your bins
Which bins you have, which night they go out, how often, and which one went out last week. About a minute.
Step 2
Pick a reminder time
The evening before, plus a bedtime check if the bins aren't out yet.
Step 3
Slide when they're out
One slide on your phone, Lock Screen or Apple Watch. Then get on with your evening.

Your schedule lives on your phone, and every date says where it came from.No account.

Works on every street

Every date in the app says where it came from.

Your schedule

You set it up, it stays on your phone, and nothing changes it without asking. Edit it any time.

Kerb or bin room

Kerbside bins or an apartment bin room, out the night before or on the morning of collection.

Holidays can move collection. The app asks you the week before instead of guessing.

A starter guide to what goes where

It covers the rules that are true everywhere in Australia, like keeping batteries out of every bin. Your council's guide always has the final say.

Free where it counts

Everything that gets your bins out on time stays free. Local Bins Plus (A$1 a month, A$10 a year or A$50 once) removes sponsor cards and Google ads, looks after up to 3 places and shares bin night with up to 6 people.
