Report bins left out on the street
Project Status: When you need to do this
If bins are left out near you and they’re causing issues, here are some things you could do.
What you need to do
Most bins must be stored on private property, not the footpath or street.
If you’re comfortable, please remind your neighbours to bring their bins in after they have been emptied.
You can also use our online form to let us know:
- how long the bin has been left out
- if it belongs to a business or resident
- your details, so we can contact you if we need more information.
Report bins left out on the street
Your report helps us keep Sydney clean.
After you finish
- Our rangers investigate reports of commercial bins left on the street
- We monitor and target residential areas with waste education
