Terms and Conditions of Use

Last updated: 10 November 2026

1. Introduction & Purpose

Welcome to Wheelie Bin Register. This platform provides a centralized South African registry where residents, body corporates, and businesses can register their municipal wheelie bins using the unique serial code on each bin, their physical South African street address, contact telephone and mobile numbers, and a photograph of the bin clearly displaying the serial number.

2. South African Addresses & Accurate Information

Registration on Wheelie Bin Register is strictly limited to addresses within the Republic of South Africa. By registering an account and adding a wheelie bin, you warrant that:

  • You are the lawful owner, resident, or authorized custodian of the property to which the wheelie bin is allocated;
  • The email address, telephone number, mobile number, and structured South African street address (Building Name & Number, House Number, Street Name, Suburb, City, Province, and Postal Code) provided by you are true, accurate, and current; and
  • The photograph uploaded for your wheelie bin is an authentic photograph of your bin clearly showing the exact serial number/code entered in your registration record.

3. Consent to Release Information to Officials Upon Approved Request

By registering on Wheelie Bin Register and accepting these Terms and Conditions, you explicitly authorize and consent that your personal information — including your full name, email address, telephone number, mobile number, registered South African residential/street address, and wheelie bin photograph — may be sent to a municipal official, South African Police Service (SAPS) officer, community safety official, or other verified official person if a recovery or identification request for your wheelie bin is approved by Wheelie Bin Register administration.

Official requests are submitted into our administrative queue and are reviewed by system administrators in the BackDoor before any owner information is transmitted to the requesting official.

4. Photographic Evidence & Bin Number Matching

You may upload one photograph per registered wheelie bin. The photograph must clearly display the unique bin code stamped, branded, or printed on the bin, and that number must match the wheelie bin number entered on your registration record. Wheelie Bin Register reserves the right to mark unverified or mismatched photographs as rejected or remove inaccurate listings.

5. Limitation of Liability

Wheelie Bin Register acts solely as an information registry to assist in the identification and recovery of wheelie bins. Registration does not guarantee the physical recovery or return of a lost or stolen wheelie bin, nor does Wheelie Bin Register assume liability for actions taken by municipalities, law enforcement agencies, or third parties.
