Yellow / Mixed Waste Bins

BACK TO PRODUCTS

Not all heroes wear capes - some are yellow, live under your desk, and are extremely picky (in a good way). Ecobin’s yellow recycling bins are made for the good stuff: drink cans, yoghurt tubs, pasta sauce jars, and that mountain of online shopping packaging.

From classrooms to boardrooms, our mixed recycling bins make sorting so easy that it’s almost second nature. And because they’re colour-coded, clearly labelled, and proudly made from recycled plastic in Australia, they’ll have everyone on your team recycling like a legend.

Explore the range below and give your recyclables the VIP treatment they deserve.

Why Yellow Recycling Bins Just Work

Bright yellow = clear signal: Everyone knows what goes in the yellow bin.

Easy labels + symbols: No guesswork, no excuses.

Built to last: Made from recycled polypropylene in Melbourne.

Folds up like a pro: Ships flat, assembles in minutes — no tools, no issues.

Loved by schools, councils & offices: These yellow bins are favourites and the go-to for high-impact waste sorting.

Whether you’re upgrading your office kitchen or setting up bins for the whole school, our yellow bins in Australia help you get it sorted fast and keep it sorted for good.

Your trash is our treasure.

We believe recycling is our superpower - and our mixed recycling bins and products are helping us use them in style. By disposing of any cans, bottles, papers and plastics smartly into an appropriate recycling bin, not only are you promoting recycling behaviours but you’re also contributing to a more sustainable future for all the generations to come.

Our mixed recycling bins come in all shapes and sizes, each one best suited to a certain bottles, plastics and cans volume. Whether you’re fitting out an office, school or commercial development, Ecobin has the perfect solution for your mixed recycling needs.

Play Your Part in a Circular Economy

Choosing the right yellow recycling bin isn’t just good for your space, it’s good for the planet. Every correctly sorted can, bottle, or tub means less landfill, lower emissions, and more materials getting a second life.

We make it easy to keep resources in circulation, reduce waste, and teach good habits early.
