Request a new, extra or different bin
In most cases, you need to own the home to make changes to your Council waste service. This is because a change may require a waste charge adjustment on the rates notice.
You can submit a request to order a new or extra bin, change the size of a bin, or start a new bin service.
The process for ordering bins depends on whether you live in a single-unit dwelling or multi-unit dwelling.

Food and garden organics (FOGO) bins
Use our online bin service request form for food and garden organics (FOGO) bin requests for single dwellings.
A single-unit dwelling is a detached building designed as a permanent, self-contained residence for one household.
To report a bin issue such as a missing, damaged or stolen bin, please contact us.
FOGO bins for multi-unit dwellings
A multi-unit dwelling is a residential building or property with two or more separate living units. It allows more than one household to live in the same structure or on the same lot.
If you are an owners corporation manager looking to order a FOGO bin for a multi-unit dwelling, please contact us and include the following:
- owners corporation number (same as the plan of subdivision number registered with Land Use Victoria)
- contact details of relevant people
- authorisation from owners corporation agent or committee chairperson.
Contact us to submit your information.

Waste service fees
When you start or change a waste service, there may be two separate costs:
- An administration fee to make the change, like delivering or taking away a bin.
- A charge on your rates notice.
We don’t charge anything for our recycling bins or service. Each property can have no more than two recycling bins.
