Bulky Waste collection
Narrabri Shire Council offers a free scheduled bulky waste collection each year. This service is only for residents with kerbside collection pickups.
The bulky waste collection helps households dispose of large items that cannot fit into the wheelie bins and unwanted materials, such as furniture and e-waste.
(Mattresses must be taken to the Narrabri Waste Management Facility.)
The next Bulky Waste Collection will be collected at any time during the following week:
- Monday, 23 August 2027 to Friday, 27 August 2027

Provision of Garbage Bins
Residents eligible for a service will receive 3 garbage bins.
Garbage - Red
Garbage - Red – Collected weekly
Residents have the option of a 140L (standard) or 240L (upsized) garbage bin. Any waste that is not hazardous can be placed in your garbage bin. However residents should endeavour to minimise the amount of waste put into the garbage bin by recycling whenever possible.

Recycling - Yellow
Recycling – Yellow – Collected fortnightly
Residents have the option of a 240L (standard) or 360L (upsized) recycling bin. Narrabri Shire encourages the recycling of empty steel cans, aerosol and aluminium cans, plastic bottles and containers, milk and juice cartons, glass bottles and jars, paper and cardboard.
It is vital for the recycling process that only the correct items go into the recycling bin. Incorrect items can cause many problems in processing and may result in recoverable resources going to landfill. It is essential that recyclable items are not placed in plastic bags. Plastic bags can do damage to the machines that sort the recyclables.

The green bin is for the collection of suitable garden and food waste. Residents should use this service as much as possible when disposing of their small tree prunings, flowers, weeds and grass clippings at home. Residents can also dispose of thin branches up to 1 metre long.
