About Ballina Shire schedules
Kerbside bin nights in Ballina Shire are set by collection zone (or property), not by suburb alone. That means two homes on different streets in the same suburb can have different days for garbage, recycling and FOGO.
When Ballina Shire publishes machine-readable schedules (CSV, GeoJSON or ArcGIS), CouncilBins imports and periodically refreshes them so residents get waste, recycling and FOGO nights in one app — no separate council portal required for day-to-day lookups.
