What Should I Do If My Bin Wasn’t Collected?

It’s frustrating to see your neighbours’ bins emptied while yours is left behind — but don’t worry! At Greyhound Recycling, we’re here to help you get back on track quickly if your bin wasn’t collected.

🛑 Why Wasn’t My Bin Collected?

There are several common reasons why a bin might not be collected:

  • 💳 Missed Top-Up: Your account may not have enough credit for the scheduled collection.
  • ⏰ Bin Not Out on Time: Bins must be out by 6am on collection day — preferably the night before.
  • 🚗 Access Blocked: A parked car or obstacle may have prevented safe access.
  • 📍 Human Error: Occasionally, a bin may be missed during the route — we’re only human!

Whatever the reason, we’ll work with you to fix it fast.

✅ What to Do If Your Bin Wasn’t Collected

If your bin hasn’t been collected by the usual time, follow these steps:

  1. Check Your Account – Log into your Greyhound online portal or app to ensure your account is in credit.
  2. Check Your Bin Placement – Was it out on time? Is it easily accessible from the kerb?
  3. Look for Notifications – We may have already notified you of a delay via SMS, email, or app.
  4. Contact Customer Care – Our award-winning team is available to help.
