The City of Melbourne has six collection zones, each with weekly general waste and recycling collections on a set day of the week (Monday through Friday). Enter the coordinates of your property and the source will automatically determine which zone you are in.

You can verify your collection zone on the [City of Melbourne garbage collection zones dataset](https://data.melbourne.vic.gov.au/explore/dataset/garbage-collection-zones/).
