The following bins are collected on a weekly or fortnightly basis:
| Bin | Collection Frequency |
|---|---|
| Green Organics Bin | Weekly |
| Red Rubbish Bin | Fortnightly |
| Yellow Recycling Bin | Fortnightly (alternating with Red Rubbish Bin) |
During the Christmas and New Year period (approximately 22 December to 2 January), Kempsey Shire Council alters the bin collection schedule. Typically all three bins are collected both weeks during this period.
Collection dates falling within this window will show a warning note in Home Assistant. Always check the Kempsey Shire Council website for the current Christmas collection schedule.
After the holiday period it is recommended to restart the integration so the fortnightly schedule resyncs to the correct week.
