Why bin night gets confusing

Most Australian councils, including Port Adelaide Enfield, South Australia, collect general waste weekly and alternate recycling and garden organics on a fortnightly rotation. That means you need to know which week of the fortnight you're in, not just which day. Public holidays can shift the entire schedule by a day, and if you've just moved in, your neighbours may be on a completely different rotation to you — even on the same street.

What the bin colours mean

Australian councils broadly follow the national standard for kerbside bins (AS 4123.7): a red lid for general waste, yellow for mixed recycling, and green for garden organics — with some councils adding a lime-green FOGO lid for combined food and garden waste, and a few using local variations. The checker above shows the bin colours Port Adelaide Enfield, South Australia actually uses for your address.

An easier way to remember bin night

If you're tired of checking calendars and counting fortnights, there's a simpler approach. Bindicator is a small lamp that sits on your kitchen bench or shelf and lights up the night before collection day in the colour of the bins that need to go out. You set it up once (it takes about 2 minutes), and then you never need to check a Port Adelaide Enfield, South Australia schedule again.
