World's Tallest Bin

Pull over and say g'day to World's Tallest Bin, one of Western Australia's most entertaining roadside attractions and a true Aussie classic. 8m high bin, built 1980 for Tidy Towns. This impressive structure has become a beloved landmark in Kalgoorlie and a symbol of the region's unique character. Big Things are a uniquely Australian phenomenon — oversized sculptures that started in the 1960s as a way to attract tourists and celebrate local industries. World's Tallest Bin continues that tradition beautifully, giving travellers a reason to stop, stretch their legs, and appreciate the quirky creativity of regional Australia. Whether you're on a family road trip, ticking off your Big Things bucket list, or just passing through Western Australia and looking for a memorable photo op, this is a stop you won't regret. It's free to visit, easy to access, and guaranteed to put a smile on your face. You can find it at coordinates -30.749, 121.466 — just punch those into your GPS and you're sorted.
