Your food organics garden organics (FOGO) bin (green lid) is used to recycle food waste, grass clippings, prunings, weeds, leaves and other garden waste.
FOGO liners are available for collection from the Manningham Civic Centre and the Manningham Depot. Limits apply.
FOGO liners
Each household with a residential waste service is eligible for one free roll of compostable liners per year. These can be collected from the Manningham Civic Centre or Manningham Depot. You will need to present your proof of residency (a rates notice or driver's licence) when collecting the liners.
FOGO liner contamination
Not all liners are the same, some compostable liners take longer (and require different conditions) to break down. Any liners that are not lime green, or don’t meet the required AS4736 standards will be considered contamination and may result in your FOGO bin not being emptied.
Although there are compostable liners available at our local supermarkets these cannot be used in our FOGO bins as they are not lime green and may be mistaken as contamination.
