80 litre bins in Darebin

If we replace your bin, you'll receive a standard 80 litre bin (with a red bin) unless you have a permit for a larger bin.

We've been using 80 litre bins since 1996. Some of you may still have 120 or 140 litre bins from the former City of Preston, but these bins are more than 20 years old. We expect to gradually replace them with 80 litre bins in the coming years.

If you think you need a larger bin, you can apply for a larger bin permit. Fees may apply depending on the size of your household.
