Waste Bin Collection

Maranoa Regional Council provides a weekly residential waste collection service for domestic waste within all designated town areas in the Maranoa region.

Council does not supply wheelie bins. These can be purchased from any hardware store.

Putting Bins Out

To ensure your bin is collected, it should be:

  • Placed on the kerbside prior to 5am the day of your collection
  • Faces the road with the handles facing your property
  • No more than 1 metre from the kerb.
  • If you have more than one bin, be sure they are more than 30 centimetres apart.

Bins awaiting collection must not block footpaths or driveways. They should be placed clear of parked cars, trees and poles to allow clear access by the contractor’s collection vehicle.

After your bin collection day, please return your bin to your property at your earliest convenience

Council’s contractors collect wheelie bins in each town on designated days each week.

Filling your bin

Please securely bag all of your rubbish before placing it in the bin to prevent it from falling out of the bin when collected

Wheel-out, Wheel back Collection Service

Did you know that Council offers a ‘Wheel-out, Wheel-back’ Service for residents needing a hand to place their wheelie bin on the kerb?

This service sees the contractor retrieve the wheelie bin, collect the rubbish and then return the bin to the resident's property.

If you are physically unable to place your bin kerbside, and there is no other person residing at your property who can place your bin kerbside, you may be eligible for this service.

To obtain an application form, please call Council’s Environmental Health and Waste Team on 1300 007 662.​
