Fridge magnets for councils and government

Fridge magnets for councils as low as 12 cents each when ordering larger quantities. The bin collection calendar is the most-used piece of print any council produces.

What to put on it

  • The bin collection calendar showing which bin goes out on which week. This is the primary content and the reason it stays on the fridge.
  • A waste sorting guide — what goes in each bin, and the common mistakes. Contamination is expensive, and clear guidance measurably reduces it.
  • Hard rubbish collection booking details and dates, which generate a high volume of avoidable enquiries.
  • Key local numbers: after-hours, ranger, roads and emergency contacts. It makes the magnet useful beyond waste.

Why fridge magnets for councils and government work

Bin night is the one council service every household engages with weekly, and the alternating recycling and green waste cycle is genuinely confusing. A magnet on the fridge settles it, and it reduces the contamination that costs councils money at the sorting facility.

It is also the most equitable channel a council has. A magnet reaches households that do not use the app, do not read email and do not visit the website — which for waste services is a large share of the community.

Common questions

What should a council put on a fridge magnet?
The bin collection calendar showing which bin goes out each week, a waste sorting guide, hard rubbish booking details and key local numbers. The bin calendar is the most-used piece of print any council produces.
Do bin calendar magnets reduce contamination?
Clear sorting guidance at the point of decision helps, and the fridge is where that decision gets made. Reducing contamination directly reduces what councils pay at the sorting facility.
How many magnets does a council need?
One per household across the LGA, which for most councils runs into the tens of thousands. The minimum order is just 50 units, so a single suburb trial is also possible.
