The Entrance

## What Is Bin Cleaning and Why Does It Matter in The Entrance? Bin cleaning is the professional washing, sanitising, and deodorising of wheelie bins using high-pressure hot water and biodegradable chemicals. In The Entrance — an iconic Central Coast destination famous for its daily pelican feeding, the channel entrance to Tuggerah Lake, a waterfront park, and one of the region's most active tourism economies — it's an increasingly essential service. The Entrance's massive seasonal tourist population — particularly during school holidays and summer — multiplies waste volume several times over, making professional bin hygiene essential from October to March. According to NSW Health guidelines, uncleaned residential bins are a significant source of household bacteria including E. coli and Salmonella, which can multiply rapidly in the warm conditions typical of the Central Coast's coastal climate. For residents of The Entrance, professional bin cleaning after every Friday collection is the most effective way to manage this risk. ### What day are bins collected in The Entrance? Bins in The Entrance are collected by Central Coast Council on **Fridays**. Red-lid general waste and yellow-lid recycling bins alternate fortnightly, with green-lid garden organics collected on the alternating cycle.
