Mayor of Canterbury-Bankstown Khal Asfour has some good news for residents frustrated by garbage trucks mixing their yellow-bin recycling.

Garbage trucks were mixing yellow-bin recycling with red-bin garbage and then dumping it all in the same compartment in the same truck.

After a review was conducted Mr Asfour found 700 bins out of 400,00 were being emptied in the same trucks.

“From today there will be no mixing of red bins and yellow bins,” he told Jim Wilson.
