FOGO is now for three things only:
Food organics, garden waste, and compostable liners.
Items previously accepted such as dog poo and stained cardboard take away containers, must now go in your red lid bin.
Updated guidance – what goes into your FOGO Bin:
- Food scraps (fruit, vegetables, meat, bones, dairy)
- Garden waste (grass clippings, small branches, weeds)
- Certified compostable caddy liners with the AS 4736 seedling logo
