A homeowner who forgot to put out his bins for the garbage collectors received a pleasant surprise when he woke up the next morning.
Danny Slater from Bribie Island, just off Brisbane, forgot to put out his bins on Sunday night.
He then woke up realising his mistake before later discovering the bins had actually been emptied.
The curious homeowner then checked his CCTV footage on Monday morning where he was given a nice surprise.
Footage showed the garbage man hop out of his truck during the early morning run and put the bins out himself.
Although this truck was only there to collect the yellow bin, the worker wheeled both the yellow and red one out to make sure the next driver didn't miss collection either.
Moreton Bay's City Council applauded the workers' efforts, commending the local legend for showing 'true Morton Bay spirit'.
After uploading the footage to social media, friends of Mr Slater cheered the bin collector and his small act of decency they said might warrant a reward.
Footage shows the truck come to an abrupt stop before the garbage man hops out, wheeling both bins down to the curb before jumping back in and emptying one.
'It was amazing to see it was our bin man. He could have sat in his cab and drove,' Mr Slater wrote.
'Massive respect to him.'
Social media users were similarly surprised by the effort gone to empty the bin.
'Definitely deserves a six-pack left out next week,' one wrote.
'The Local Council and his employer should give this chap some recognition - that's fantastic above and beyond care there,' another added.
The Moreton Bay Regional Council reposted the footage to their page, brandishing it as a testament of the friendly nature of their area.
'Showing true Moreton Bay spirit, going above and beyond to help a neighbour out - we need more legends like this in the world,' they wrote.
