As councils begin to turn away from verge-side collection, the age-old practice of hunting through Perth neighbourhoods in the hopes of finding hidden treasures has slowly started to die out with it.

However, one website developer is determined to make sure Perth locals will still have the opportunity to "kerbside shop".

A number of Perth councils are phasing out verge-side collection in favour of skip bins.

West Leederville man Benedict Noel has created vergeside.com.au, a map which details all the current and upcoming verge collections in Perth.

He developed the idea after seeing a similar map from 2011, and immediately identified a need to update its contents.
