Description
Each Council or community has an emblem embossed on its wheely bins; what does yours look like?
I figure it would be interesting to see the different emblems used through out Australia and maybe find out why each community chose that emblem for its insignia.
To log this cache, please:
1. PRINT the name of the council or community concerned at the start of your log in CAPITAL LETTERS;
2. Give the co-ordinates of that Council or community;
3. Take a photograph of the whole wheely bin and post it with your log; this will show colour and size;
4. Take a close up photograph of the emblem and post with the other photograph.
The reason for that community selecting that emblem would be of interest but not essential to claim a smiley.
Each Council or community emblem can be posted once only, repeats will be deleted. For this reason, post yours quickly so you don't have to go to another community to claim a find on this cache.
If you think this locationless is a "load of rubbish", please ignore it; otherwise have fun putting your rubbish out!

I noticed the central coast council has 2 different logos on their bins.
Only one has been logged so I am logging the other.
Noticed the 2 different ones on our 3 wheelie bins around the side of the house.

BLUE MOUNTAINS CITY COUNCIL
We started off with a red bin,but over the years we now also have a yellow for recycling and green for greenwaste.
Our red bins are emptied weekly, and green and yellow are alternate weeks.
We get 2 extra green bin pickups in September as the BM Council encourages residents to do yard clean up before the hot summer/fire season starts.

I was in the area to attend an Event and walking past several of these Melbourne City Council Wheely Bins. The emblem is a segmented M which perhaps indicates the suburbs within the Melbourne Council Area.

MOORABOOL SHIRE COUNCIL
I found this wheely bin in Bacchus Marsh which is in the Moorabool Shire. The name comes from the Moorabool River which flows through the shire. Having seen the emblem in colour I am guessing that the lower section which is blue represents the river whilst the upper section with the wavy lines i green and again guessing may represent ploughed paddocks.

Driving through Scottsdale I noticed that it appears that this council has two different styles of bins for rubbish and recycle. Recycle is blue with a yellow lid and rubbish is green with a red lid.
The recycle bin emblem is the outline of the Dirset Municipality with its internal divisions marked. The rubbish bin emblem is a map of Tasmania with the Dorset Municipality shaded in in white. Superimposed is an eagle (not sure if this is a Wedgetail or Sea Eagle) and a kangaroo.

The bridge on the shield represents the Victoria Bridge, an important transportation link in the area. Branches under the shield depict wattle which flowers profusely in the Penrith district. The sheep, fish and Cornucopia (Symbol of Plenty) symbolise Penrith’s early agricultural days. The wheel of industry depicts the rapid progress of secondary industry in the Penrith district.
Colours used in the Crest include:
Dark Brown –Background of the Council of the City of Penrith
Light Brown –Background of sheep, unstriped parts of banner under fox.

Found in Prospect SA on our holidays . Found some in WA but they were very boring - just the name of the council. The SA bins have been more decorative in design !
Well, would you count the ACT Government as a council for wheely bins? Because even though most of the bins in Canberra say "ACT Department of Urban Servies", we recently replaced our bin and the new logo on the front is the ACT coat of arms and simply says ACT Government. I have posted a photo as well as the coordinates for the centre of Canberra (ACT).

I'd never taken any notice of such things so walked up the street only to find that our wheely bins are enclosed in a slatted steel structure with a hole in the top to drop your rubbish in. There is a little roof over the hole so in effect you could make a wish as you did the right thing as they look like wishing wells. Peering through the slats I could see that the only evidence they were council property was the lettering S.C.C.

At the top of the list was a favourite cacher of my geokid, OldSaint.
So we had to run right out & shoot our bin (being an archery family).
So here are photos of our 2 bins, the old one with the old council logo & the newer snazzy one with the new (snazzy?) logo & yellow lid.
Photos of you bin, what an odd thing to do, so TFTC OldSaint, this one made us chuckle.
