About our Wheelie Bins
Econowaste offers a range of regular household rubbish and green waste wheelie bin collections throughout North Auckland and parts of West Auckland. Our wheelie bins are available in three different sizes 80L, 120L and 240L for general waste.
Our general waste collection service is offered weekly and is an excellent alternative to rubbish bags. Wheelie bin collections are an easy, convenient and hygienic way to dispose of household waste.
We also offer green waste wheelie bins, perfect for those who garden regularly and need a service to stay on top of their gardening waste. All green waste collected in wheelie bins is recycled locally into compost, making this service circular.
A monthly green waste collection can be added to a new or existing general waste wheelie bin service for only $45 per year.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can go in my general waste wheelie bin?
Your general waste wheelie bin is intended for most household general waste. However, please note that the following items should not be placed in the bin:
- Concrete
- Stones
- Steel
- Wood
- Hot ashes

- Hazardous or flammable materials
To ensure the appropriate use of the bin, kindly refrain from disposing of these restricted items. Should you have inquiries about specific materials, feel free to contact us for further guidance.
What time should I have my bin out?
To ensure timely collection, kindly position your bin by the kerbside no later than 7:00 AM on the scheduled collection day.
Many of our customers find it convenient to place their wheelie bins out the night before, which is a great advantage of a wheelie bin as pests cannot get into the rubbish.
