From tomorrow you can start separating glass into your new purple bin , there’s also changes to what can go in you yellow-lidded b...in and when to put your bins out.

22.01.2022 Over 3 weekends in December local artists will be popping up for roving entertainment in #Yarra's iconic streets . This year we aren't able to hold our annual Carols in the Park (thanks COVID) so we've created Rock Around the Block to spread the festive cheer - without getting too near. Keep an eye out for the #RockAroundTheBlock truck in our much loved precincts, stopping for 30 minute performances before trucking off to the next destination . Please stay COVID safe and follow all advice in line with the current restrictions while you're out and about. Keep you distance and don't gather. Full details: https://bit.ly/373nH3a #YarraLife

From 23 November your purple glass bin and yellow recycling bin will be collected on different weeks, and alternate moving forward. To check which bins you need to put out first, you'll need to check your new bin collection calendar. We've also created an SMS reminder system, to help you keep track of which bins need to go out each week. That’s one less thing for you to ...think about!
