ACT NOWaste manages waste and recycling collection services for households in the ACT. Cleanaway is the contractor who empties the bins on behalf of the ACT Government. Waste bins are collected weekly and recycling is collected fortnightly.
The ACT has the best levels of recycling per capita in the nation. Businesses and non-residential properties (such as schools, clubs and shopping centres) are required to arrange their own waste and recycling services with a commercial operator.
