 FAQs

  • Determining your bin collection day typically varies based on your residential location. Most areas operate on a rotating schedule for waste collection, meaning different neighborhoods have different collection days. To find your specific bin collection day, consider checking the official website of your local council or waste management authority. There, you'll likely find a section dedicated to waste services or bin collection schedules. By inputting your address, postcode, or suburb into the provided tool or search function, you can access a calendar or schedule detailing your collection days for various types of bins, such as general waste, recycling, and green waste.

  • An ICS file is a calendar file saved in a universal calendar format. Some councils support export of the waste collection calendars via this format. Bindicator does not currently support importing these .ics files, however it’s something we’re looking into for a future update.

  • Bindcator can only display 2 bin colours at a time, however if more than 2 bins need to be taken out on a given day, the colours will fade between all of the active schedules. The maximum number of concurrent bins is 32, but if you have that many you’ve got bigger problems!

  • Yes, Bindicator needs an active Wi-Fi connection to function. Bindicator uses the Wi-Fi connection to keep the time so that you don’t have to worry about daylight savings or leap-years.
