The 29th of January is Kerbside Collection Day for Annerley and residents are urged to start preparing for this annual exodus of items from their homes.
A week before the collection date, you can start placing your items outside your house or by the kerb.
Here are the stuff that you can put out:
- Less than 1.5 metres of wood products
- Bikes, sports equipment
- Discarded household items
- Small appliances
- Rugs & carpets
- Computers
- Televisions
Do not put these stuff out:
- Garden waste
- Car parts
- Glass or mirror
- Food scraps
- Commercial or building waste
- Hazardous materials or gas bottles
The Rules:
- Keep everything contained and no larger than 2 cubic metres
- Take the doors off of items with doors
- No sharp or dangerous objects
- Secure your boxes
Now, before you throw anything away, there are actually other options you can explore.
If some of your items could still be useful to other people, may be you can donate it to an op shop. In Annerley there are plenty of op shops where you can go to such as The Asthma Foundation, Lifeline, and Vinnies. This will help you get rid of your items and at the same time, help someone else.

On the other hand, for items that are not acceptable for kerbside pick-up, do NOT leave them by the kerb. Instead, you can drop them off at resource recovery centres in Willawong, Chandler, Ferny Grove or Nudgee. Find out more about them here.
