In Yackandandah, bins go out on Tuesday. The green-lid organics bin is collected every week; the red-lid general waste bin and the yellow-lid recycling bin are collected fortnightly, on alternating Tuesdays. This page works out which one is next from Indigo Shire's 2026 collection calendar, so you can see whether this Tuesday is a red week or a yellow week without hunting for the fridge magnet. Indigo Shire is a three-bin shire — there is no separate purple glass bin, so glass bottles and jars go in the yellow recycling bin.
All of the Yackandandah township is collected on Tuesday. Some rural properties outside town don't receive the green-lid organics service — the council's own address lookup is the last word on that.
